The webcam may not be on all the time (it crashes sometimes, and doesn’t auto-restart) - but if it’s working, you should see a live video-feed in the window below. It’s a Creative PC-Cam 300, normally pointing over the back garden/side road, but sometimes it’ll be swung round to the bird feeder.
It *is* fairly bandwidth intensive, so click the link to the left for a ‘Lo-fi’ version - timed ftp upload. If you only see a blank box, then the cam is offline, OR you’re behind a firewall that is blocking the ports needed for it to work - the timestamp on the lo-fi version will give you a clue which one’s the problem.
