Pete's Pond is a waterhole on Mashatu Game Reserve in Botswana, Africa. It is a famous webcam that began on National Geographic's wildcam and is now hosted and operated by WildEarth.
The camera is mounted overlooking the waterhole along with a microphone and floodlights that switch on automatically at night.

It’s high noon now....bookmark for future dawn and dusk viewing....
re: floodlights that switch on automatically at night
I’m surprised the environmental folks allow this. Seems like lighting a naturally dark place where wildlife comes to drink under the cover of that darkness would defeat one of their protections.
LOL! I was waiting for that last shot!
Thanks for the update. I was addicted to Pete’s Pond years ago, but when the site was having problems, I was cured. Nice to have the sounds back and look forward to it when evening and dawn come.
(Yeah — an addiction — so thanks a bunch!!)
You got what you deserved.....................goofball! ;D
