Derby Peregrine Falcon Webcams Almost Too Popular!
Streamdays Webcam Hosting web servers are being given a real load test by the Derby Cathedral Peregrine Project webcam. They’re almost too popular, but not so much that the tech heads at Network Webcams can’t keep the service running.
While many thousands of visitors to the project’s live webcam page have been watching the falcon family take turns incubating their 4 soon-to-hatch eggs, we’ve been dealing with the massive surge in bandwidth this has generated. It seems the cameras are so good anyone who sees them leaves them running all day long!
The large resolution live webcam images (704×576) give such clear pictures of the nest that viewers can watch every tiny detail of the falcons’ comings and goings.
This is the kind of project Streamdays Webcam Hosting is made for and we will be working with the Peregrine Project in the coming weeks and months to improve the service as far as we can.
