 Featherlion (A04) - Webcam images and video 
A webcam was installed on this study site to track and document the development of the fairy circles over time. Once every day at 12 noon, a landscape photo is taken. When all of these individual shots are combined, the video gives an overall impression of the quantity, size, and vegetation condition of the fairy circles and tracks of animals in time-lapse. The video can be downloaded here as a file.
The video shows the changes of many fairy circles in the Featherlion Hill Observatory in the Marienfluss Valley during the period from 30.06.2015 until 20.05.2016. The pictures capture the plain south of Featherlion Hill. In the distance the mountain ranges of the Hartmannberge mark the western limits of the Marienfluss Valley. Unfortunately, the automatic weather station and the camera were vandalized and the time lapse series could not be extended.
