Title: Northern Lights webcam, Churchill, Manitoba
Post by: AlisonL on 16-Nov-15, 04:32:01 PM
There is a webcam at the Churchill Northern Studies Center in northern Manitoba which not only provides views of the northern lights, but also at times views of wildlife.

I caught this beautiful gyrfalcon on cam:

The bird was on cam for about 20 minutes in the middle of the afternoon. Churchill is one hour behind Rochester.

Have been checking, but no sign of the gyrfalcon today so far.

Sunrise this morning at Churchill:
