This site is funded by donations only, which limits our ability to support it. An upgraded camera and a new weather station are needed but we need to raise about $3,000 for a new camera and/or $1,200 for a weather station. If you would like to make a tax-deductible contribution toward the cost of an upgraded camera or new weather station, please contact webmaster Tom Wilson (email: webmaster@lishore.org), or Click here to make an secure online donation,
