I enjoy webcams (watching them, not being watched--ewww)
and have been watching the goings on in Times Square, NYC for several years through Earth Cams. they have several cameras set up in various cities, and I do keep my eyes on London, as well.
Last week I realized (after ?5? years or so ) there is a clickable map, and started clicking on the various cameras set up around the world (bored in the middle of the night at work...)
and I found this one. It's on a farm, on the border of Yorkshire and Lancashire (I think) and it's in a field so you can watch the activities (or not) of the resident sheep, birds, etc. (oh yea, and sometimes the farmer with a cool accent) The son, who set it up, takes great photos, and they also film things like shearing the sheep, and other farm activities.
But, it's fun just watching, checking in every once in awhile, watching them sniff the birdfeeder or scratch their back on the sign! (the sheep, not the farmers! )
Here's a link, it's a time waster, but fun...

you can find amazing things in the middle of the night....and sheep don't sleep in the barn!  _________________ ~~~Nora~~~
