WEB CAM Viewing Project

The Wings Over Alma project to fund the Eagle Web Cam is well underway.  As the final component of the
Wildlife Viewing Project at the Nature & Art Center we are excited that we will be able to provide our internet visitors live viewing opportunities. 

The web camera has been installed and is broadcasting live at Wings Over Alma.  We are working out the technical aspects of video production and anticipate the Eagle Web Cam broadcasting on the internet soon.   Make A Donation
