My favourite is the beach I used to go to on holiday when I was a kid. I love watching the tide ebb and flow, so many happy memories.
Do you watch any and if so what is your favourite?

Lots of bird feeder cams all over the world - interesting if you're a birder.

Are they naked?

RosalindsAFuckingNightmare · 07/09/2022 01:04

Ooh, thanks for all the posts, this will keep me awake going for a while!

Sadly I missed it but apparently there was a good old storm at my usual webcam watch last night!

How can I be this age and not know this is a thing? 😊

felulageller · 07/09/2022 01:34

Wow. Mind blown. Didn't know this existed.

Namibian watering hole.

Brilliant! Thanks for this link. Just watching a bunch of oryx drinking from a very small pool of water!

@RosalindsAFuckingNightmare can I ask your usual one?
separately, a tropical storm one would be awesome!

Resurrecting the thread to add my own.

Dam Square in Amsterdam

Prague 'lubricating tram' - it drives around Prague greasing the tram tracks and handily has a webcam on the back. Surprisingly entertaining.

I'm loving these webcams!

Please keep them coming 🙏

It's not live but i love www.window-swap.com/Window.
People all over the world film the scene from a window, fascinating stuff. Lots of wildlife and weather! I sat and watched a train track that had bullet trains going past for about twenty minutes knowing full well it was looping!

@PleaseGoDontGoAgain that window swap is addictive! I can't stop pressing the button 😂

And the bird feeder is great @FlorettaB!

My fave - live Dymchurch beach cam
We often go there for a few hours on the wekends

babasaclover · 22/09/2022 21:31

Didn't realise this was a thing. Thank you!!!

Abbey Road crossing

I can waste hours watching that. Watching people annoying the traffic and fannying about doing funny walks on a zebra crossing never gets old. 🤷‍♀️

catandcoffee · 22/09/2022 21:45

Another one who had no idea about this. 😀

RosalindsAFuckingNightmare · 22/09/2022 23:56

@deeperthanallroses

Glad to have bought joy to some of you who didn't know these existed and laughing at the thought that some of you thought this was going to be rude 😂

Link didn't work properly but if you click on the link to YouTube it will take you there - it's Dawlish beach in Devon and if you are lucky you might see a train going through <geek>

Really enjoying this thread.
Here's my contribution. They're not particularly exciting at the moment but when winter and the snow comes they're more impressive Smile

Another live beach cam, Brighton

I love having a quick look at them both every so often
