We will have to replace this camera soon
because
it is coming to the end of its useful life. It no longer pans and zooms (fortunately
it froze in a good location) and we are using a cobbled-together method to get
the pictures to you. We will have some funds available but will need more, a replacement is $1,200.
You can help.
Thanks.
The Eel River Delta.
From the top of Fortuna's River Lodge, this webcam sends us a new picture every twenty seconds during daylight hours. It has some terrific views of the Eel River Delta, Mt. Pierce, Bear River Ridge, the Wildcat Range, Grizzly Bluff, Riverwalk Drive and parts of Fortuna. Scroll down to the bottom of the page to see the area it covers.
While you're here, be sure to check out our other cameras. We have
them downtown, on Fortuna Boulevard and in Rohner Park. We often set up
temporary cameras during special events so you can also enjoy the
festivities!

What an Awesome Place to Live!
 Recently, while we were adjusting this camera, we watched an osprey bringing home the bacon, er, fish. This bird had a huge wingspan and the fish must have been close to two feet long. She would struggle to gain a few feet of altitude, glide a bit to catch her breath, then claw her way back up again. Disregarding normal protocol, she passed within 15 feet of us. We could hear the sounds that her wings made, beating the air.
We stood in silent awe as we watched her slowly disappear downriver, struggling mightily to bring home a prize meal for the family. What an awesome place to live!
