My live bird web cams attract fans from around the world
I knew people from all around the world who watch my live bird nest cameras on YouTube. But it wasn't until viewers started to send me selfies of where they are when they are watching the owl and kestrel webcams, that I got a flavour of just how far-flung my live stream fans are. The fact that people from South Korea, Tokyo, the Philippines, the US and more, tune in at all hours of the day to watch the owls in my garden in Thixendale even made the BBC news.
I've listed some of my favourites below and, if you are a fan, please add yourself to the list and let me know where you watch in the comments below.
A bowling alley in Rotterdam
Niels van Dalen discovered my nest cams a few years ago whilst off work and seriously ill. He was so hooked on the stories of the owls & kestrels, that he decided to share them when he returned to work. Apparently one day the cycling was on the screen behind the bar and no one seemed to be watching, so he put my livestream up instead. People soon started to come up and ask him about the birds. He says he's converted a few sports fans to bird watching - I wonder if a cheer goes up when a barn owl chick hatches!! 
The queue to the Statue of Liberty
Mario Portillo and his family were so keen not to miss Gylfie the barn owl's first chick hatching on the livestream, they were watching from the queue to go up to New York's Statue of Liberty when they sent me this.
My favourite livestream fan
My absolute favourite fan of the bird nest livestream is Rosie, a cockatoo from Mexico. Apparently, she gets very vocal when the owls come on. 
Livestream fans in Tokyo & South Korea
The following two photos were sent to me from Mico in Tokyo and from a fan in South Korea. It's heartening to know that owl and kestrel love crosses many diverse cultures.
From the Rocky Mountains to downtown Seattle
Danae Zenor sent me his view from the Rocky Mountains in Colorado. Interesting I get so many fans from the US since a lot of our wildlife species are different. For example, in the US they don't get buzzards and the most similar bird there is a hawk. There's often a lot of confusion, over this, but it's so great to see how many people love British wildlife. 
Above is how Karen who lives in Seattle watches.
Watching with plushies
And Antje, a fan from Bremen in Germany likes to watch with soft toys
I received many more images from viewers, but just thought I'd share these with you since they are so much fun.
Where do you watch?
If you're also a livestream fan, please tell me where you are in the comments. Also, if you're not following the everyday lives of the owls, kestrels, stoats and weasels in my garden, yet, then here's the link: https://www.robertefuller.com/nest-cams/
