Watson's aunt Posted October 29, 2015 #126 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Hi I have been there for a few years. I did post a link maybe 2 years ago. But they will be going dark soon. The polar batteries will die. No one there to recharge them. Its a long winter without them. There were about 15-20 bears at the falls in the summer this year. One of my favorite bears disappeared last year. Still hoping he is else where. Rangers also have chats and will also post to thinks happening. The are closed now for winter Mary.

geocruiser Posted June 26, 2016 Author #127 Share Posted June 26, 2016 The bear cam is up and running. Remember if you are going to watch the cam, theses bear are in the wilds of Alaska. Some time there are things that they do that you might not like. EX. fight, mate etc. But you can learn a lot about them. Great to look at before you HAL Alaskan cruise. http://explore.org/live-cams/player/brown-bear-salmon-cam-brooks-falls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joekerstef Posted June 26, 2016 #128 Share Posted June 26, 2016 Someone on our cruise mentioned these cameras. Thanks for refreshing the thread with the links! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muffin Posted June 26, 2016 #129 Share Posted June 26, 2016 (edited) I saw another live cam perhaps last June or July. It was off Vancouver island I believe, but was definitely live panorama of the strait where, periodically, a whale, or seal, or whatever would swim by. Can anybody save me a lengthy search to try to find it!? Thx. Of course I found it when I went to the photos under the cam link above. Simply click on photo of orcas, and there you are., sorry for the off track post. Edited June 26, 2016 by muffin Senior moment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just watched it for about 30 minutes and saw six different bears including a mother with 2 cubs. Very interesting and probably a bit addictive. Three of the bears seemed to be fishing in the stream but not having a lot of success. I assume that will change when the salmon really start to run.

Three bears at the falls now. The fish are starting to come up stream. Can't wait till they are jumping out of the water. Alaska is beautiful, one of my favorite cruises that I been on.

geocruiser Posted July 4, 2017 Author #135 Share Posted July 4, 2017 The bear viewing season has started. They are now back at the river feeding on salmon. Remember this is a live cam with wild bears. So, you might see any type of bear behavior. Sometime nature is harsh. http://explore.org/live-cams/player/brown-bear-salmon-cam-brooks-falls http://explore.org/live-cams/player/river-watch-brown-bear-salmon-cams http://explore.org/live-cams/player/brown-bear-salmon-cam-lower-river Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geocruiser Posted July 5, 2017 Author #138 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Happy to hear that every one is enjoying the bears. I also find the underwater salmon cam interesting too. So many salmon there now, but the bears seem to be taking a nap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobandjo Posted July 5, 2017 #139 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Yesterday when I was watching the underwater a bear came right up to the camera and took a swipe at it, turned and walked away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geocruiser Posted July 6, 2017 Author #141 Share Posted July 6, 2017 On the bear web site. They have a icon of a camera, which you can click on and take a picture of what the cam is showing. One of the members just took this photo. I just can't resist sharing here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
