South Texas feeder cam
This webcam from south Texas features moving water and several kinds of bird food. If you tune in after dark, you can see it softly illuminated and hear the water trickling. It's a winner any time of day. (9/30)
Leading with clean energy

Not storms: Birds!
Is it storms? No, it's birds! More and more weather forecasters are mentioning migrating birds on their radar -- finding them newsworthy, not nuisances. This short video from First Alert Live Radar in Tennessee is a great example. (9/16)

Mississippi River Flyway webcam
We are huge fans of this webcam, especially during migration season. The Raptor Resource Project hosts it live from an island in the heart of the Mississippi River’s Driftless area in the Upper Mississippi National Fish and Wildlife Refuge on Lake Onalaska, Wisconsin. When we tuned in about 4 PM Central time, we saw a White Pelican preening. Lovely. (9/17)
