Wildlife Cams at Felix Neck
The viewing scopes at Felix Neck point straight at the osprey pole you see on the cam (more photos in our Felix Neck gallery)
Felix Neck Wildlife Sanctuary in Edgartown, run by Mass Audubon, points two cameras at its nesting birds. In season there is real drama here: eggs, chicks, feedings, and the occasional squabble.
Osprey Nest Live Cam
The resident ospreys return to this nest platform every spring. From spring through summer you can watch them fish, feed chicks, and defend the nest live. They head south for the winter, so in fall and winter the stream usually shows an empty nest until they are back.
Owl Box Live Cam
A camera inside the sanctuary's owl box. Quiet for stretches, then suddenly very much not.
Both cams are run by Felix Neck / Mass Audubon. If you enjoy them, they take memberships and donations. More on the island's animals in our wildlife guide.

When the weather turns
If you are watching the cameras because of a storm, the boats are the first thing to check: the ferry guide explains cancellations and standby, and when there is an advisory, the banner at the top of every page follows the Steamship Authority and the National Weather Service. For what a wet day on the island is good for, there is the rainy day list; for what the weather usually does in the month you are coming, weather by month; and after Labor Day, what stays open.
Planning a trip rather than watching one? The day-by-day planner lays out the days and the trip cost calculator prices it.
Many of these feeds come from our partner GoMV. Read about the island's official live webcam network.
