Shamu's tank

I often go to this site: Shamu to see what Shamu and buddies are doing. It's a cool web cam inside the tank! We've seen as many as three whales together, a mama and baby, a whale scrubbing his/her dorsal fin on a rock, and the whales playing with a ball!
They pass right in front of the camera at times and it's a great way to build anticipation for a trip to SW!

Sometimes, nobody's home so if there aren't whales check back!

Click on the link on the bottom that says "Watch the Shamu Cam".
Enjoy!

Everytime I check - Shamu must be doing a show - cause I don't see anything.
I would love to use this during computer lab - I hope I can find a time when the whales are there!
Thanks for the link!

Hi Ann!
Keep checking back. There's more than one tank that the whales are put in over time. I'm sure they are rotated (maybe to prevent boredom?) I showed it in class last week and my students begged to watch it longer!
