3:52pm.....Hi Sandy.............I just tried to get into the E zoomer cam again and it did come up for me too! I have added an update on the tech thread to show the controls on the E zoomer cam are still an issue.

Just let me know if and when you want me to take over.

Both embedded cams remain offline until Ken can fix this shortly.
Jean, sorry I just saw this. I am now off. I was able to get on both. The east cam settled down some but the west cam was wiggling. Question marks???

4:06pm...........IN on both cams.

Sandy, could it be that the small birds that might be in the tree made things wiggle?

I am in on the E cam but see what you mean about problems with the controls! :( I will likely not be using it much if at all.

Also..........don't seem to have much sound on the zoomer cams, next to none. Is it that quiet out there? :dunno:

Yeah, for me the east cam would be jerky then it would smooth out and then back to jerky (best description I can think of). Didn't think about the little birdies in the tree.

I didn't notice the sound as had the computer turned down. But noticed today when Ma landed in the nest and vocalized, the sound was really low. Turned the sound up as high as I could and still was very low. Not like usual when we can hear them from the evergreen.

4:19pm.......I'm noticing that when I use the presets the target is blurry when the cam gets there and I must manually focus it. Don't think it was doing that before when I was here.

I have left another msg. on the tech thread. Things just not quite right. :no:

4:37pm......Our adult has shown up now and is on the far right tower........mate on the pole.

The adult on the tower must have hopped behind the brace. I did not actually see it go there.

4:48pm.....They are still there but I can see them moving around a bit. It is quite dark now so I will assume they've tucked in for the night without a sunset nest visit.

Thanks everyone for being here today. :grhug:

I am now OFF both cams.
