Go scuba diving in Bonaire National Marine Park in the Netherlands Antilles without donning a wet suit.

The camera is located 49 feet (15 meters) below the drop off at the dive site and offers a view of the coral reef. Control how fast the image updates by selecting the refresh rate in the lefthand corner of the screen. You can make it as fast as every two seconds.

For a snowy scene, here's a live streaming video of a snowman (not made of snow), a duck and a thermometer showing the temperature in Gaylord, Michigan, a golfing and snow mobile destination.

Ken and Sheryl Borton's display is near their home in Wilderness Valley and has become a tourist destination for snow mobile enthusiasts. During daylight hours, you may not see much action on the webcam. But in the evening, you may spot deer in the woods coming to feed.
