High Resolution Webcam at Panama Canal

Category: miscellaneousSteve @ 15:43 pm

The webcams at the Panama Canal have been upgraded with the addition of a high-resolution camera at Miraflores.  (Java required).  It’s always interesting to see what’s passing through the canal and with the new camera at the Miraflores Lock, you can get a very clear view.

A Sub in the Canal

Category: military, miscellaneousSteve @ 08:50 am

The webcams at the Panama Canal occasionally catch some interesting critters, and with the addition of a hi-res cam at the Miraflores lock you can get an even better view of things.  This morning there’s a submarine transiting the canal.  Any idea whose?

If you can’t get a picture, click the Get Java link at the bottom of the webcam page, install it and then reload the page.

He’s Back….

Category: miscellaneousSteve @ 15:25 pm

The falcon that shows up periodically on the Panama Canal webcam is back.  There is some debate as to whether it’s a bat falcon or orange-breasted falcon, but he’s pretty interesting either way.
