Last time I checked, no wolves have been spotted on Bonaire anyway... :)
Might be a good counter measure against the donkeys though ;-))

Cool captures Michael!!! I don't think I've seen a diver entering the water from a boat on the reefcam be4.
Maybe it's the rescue-party 4 the diver-behind-the-mouring-block... :)

Hmmm,
I don't think he will look so fresh if he has been lying there since yesterday 12:00 :)

I think we found the guy that lost his equipment and got stuffed behind the pylon.

Hey Jake - Technical question for you. I don't know why, but I always assumed the reefcam was aimed to the north. After watching the boat above to mooring block and the relative position from below, it looks like it's facing south. I checked the FAQ, but it doesn't say.

So which direction is it pointing?

Thanks!

Michael
If you go to the 360 degree beach cam at
http://www.nettech.an/360/ then turn the veiw to the right,you will see 4 large rocks at the waters edge. Just a little further to the right is a somewhat smaller rock. Now zoom in and you will see the webcam buoy near the horizon.
At least I believe you do. Mickey

Mickey, I always wondered the same thing. Forgot to check it when I first looked at the 360 beach shot.

Sure was a slow day on the webcams. I went back through the archives tonight and came up with almost nothing. Just a couple of interesting shots of Jake and Linda's open door and Grendel keeping watch. I did find one that seemed worthy of posting to the end of the day, however....

Good night and God bless...

The 15:02 is Geoffrey, and the 15:04 and 15:06 are me. We just got back, but I wanted to see if anyone posted us before we go to bed...

We had a great time, saw some dolphins off of Klein and 2 octopi mating in about 15 feet of water in front of Captain Don's, among many other things. We didn't get photos of either, unfortunately (didn't have the camera handy when the dolphins appeared, and hadn't brought the camera along for the night dive when we saw the mating octopi - drat!) I did get some nice photos of an octopus the night before - I'll post some highlights soon.
