KenCam - Central Lake, Michigan


This is the live web cam shot of my back yard on Intermediate Lake Road in Central Lake.  I keep the camera pointed at the bird feeders with the picture updating every four seconds.  Besides the birds, you can occasionally see deer, rabbits, skunks, opossums, squirrels, and raccoons feeding on the ground.  In the winter I have a couple of snow depth gauges installed.    You can email me with any questions or comments.







This close-up, taken before snow started to accumulate, can be used as a guide to read the snow depth out in the yard.
(2/8/10)  Conditions were 5° and clear this morning at sunrise.  We're expecting a few inches of snow beginning tomorrow, with heavier accumulation to the south, but it should have passed through by Friday.

(2/7/10)  On nice days, the swans like to lounge out on the ice while the mallards still seem to prefer to be close to or in the water.  You can see this swan in the distance in the panorama below.  Click on the thumbnail picture to see an enlarged view.


(2/7/10)   With highs in the 20's, a clear sky, and no wind, winter doesn't get any better than this.  There are fishing shanties and snowmobiles out on the ice, but I haven't seen any pickup trucks.  You can see the progression of this season's ice formation in the Winter Scenes page.
