Actually, I see what you mean.  If I wait 10 secs, then it goes to the current time.  Thanks, bev!

With these cameras, you will go in and have to wait for a bit for the right time to appear, with each camera and then it will be O.K.
I have the opposite problem -- they're right when I first go in, then they change back to 12:36.  Whatever -- I've just stopped switching cams.  lol

The first cam is also a few seconds behind the other 2, on purpose.

I am going to ask for a 15 second feed again.9 if I have falcons)

I'm not sure if it's because my virtual memory is low as at work I have 4 times the memory so I thought that might be the problem.
That could be it carly, because I know I'm almost out of memory on my laptop, and I didn't have this problem last year.  Guess it's time to do some housecleaning!

Holy cow, nothing for hours then suddenly black wings fill the screen...

Well that was so quick, I wonder if I imagined it!

I had problems on one of the camera views as well...I had to exit as the cam was locked up.

Liz, I have the same problem at home.  Only one camera will refresh for me.  I literally have to open a new window if I want to see what is current on another cam view, otherwise say I'm watching Cam 1 - then Cam 2 & 3 stay on the image they were at when I first opened them.  At work it is fine but for some reason at home I've always had that problem.

I'm not sure if it's because my virtual memory is low as at work I have 4 times the memory so I thought that might be the problem.

When I switch to the page, the time is right.  But as soon as I change cameras, all three go back to 12:36.

These camera feeds are kinda bugging me.  They keep going back to two hours ago, according to the time stamp.  I seem to be stuck at 12:36 on all three cams, even tho I just saw Camera 2 say it was 14:40.

Hi Loriann.

 I t was never a raven hate, even though it sounded that way. I just know what is going to happen and I felt the biologists could prevent it becasue the Falcon is still a protected species.  I have done a lot of research as of late , and even though in the wild if there are enough nests they tolerate each other, becasue they sort of warn off the enemies , if there are not enough nests, it is a very nasty fight.  look in the Netherlands.
There has been so much drama just between the falcons in the last 2 years here that I was hoping they would not have to contend with Ravens also.

Ravens are not my favorite bird in a urban setting but I admire their brains. I do no like them in my backyard as I have crows and bluejays and magpies also.  so I do not encourage them.  but I would never physically harm one.

As i stated earlier, think how you would be feeling right now if they were in your peregrine boxes.

Nice to see some of the "raven-hate" has changed into something more agreeable and what I would expect from bird/animal lovers here. 
Honestly i was kind of shocked at the 'anger' towards these birds, who do not know they are on someone elses turf.  Thats how it works some times.

Still hoping for a favorable outcome for all the birds......

I really hope they go in tomorrow and dismantle it again.  No point in waiting - it might make it too late for them to re-nest somewhere else. 
btw -- I'm not uncaring about this, just trying to be practical.  I want no harm to come to the ravens.  I'd like them to find somewhere else to nest.  That's why I hope it gets taken apart again tomorrow, instead of the biologists waiting until she's in labour.  I think we have to again assume that they know what they're doing, even if it's not going at a speed we'd like.   :)   Come on home, PFs!
