- Sushi Cam

When most people think of sushi they think of RAW fish. This is not quite correct. Actually if you go into any sushi bar and look at all the seafood choices, only a small handful will be actually raw. Most fish has been prepared in some fashion. Even though it might look raw, it has gone through some kind of process. Either pickled, blanched, soaked in Sake (rice wine) and then frozen, there are many things that happen to the fish before you eat it. Now you can check out the experts. Three streaming views inside the Taturo Sushi Shop in Tokyo, Japan.

- Butterfly Cam

Butterflies and moths make up a large group of insects known as the Order Lepidoptera (lep-i-DOP-ter-ah). The name -- from the Greek lepido, "scale", and ptera, "wings" -- refers to a prominent feature of adult butterflies and moths, the tiny scales that cover the wings and the rest of the body. Adult butterflies are wonderfully diverse in shape, size, and color. Active during the day, they live almost everywhere around the world, from Arctic tundra to tropical rain forests. There are more than 250,000 known species of Lepidoptera, of which about 18,000 are butterflies.

Yellowstone National Park now has three WebCams. If you can't come see Old Faithful erupt in person, you can view it online. Old Faithful is not the largest or most regular geyser in the park. It has become a popular destination because it erupts more frequently than any of the other big geysers. Between eruptions, stop in at the Mount Washburn FireCam or Mammoth WebCam to see what's happening elsewhere in Yellowstone.

- Roach Cam

These giant  Madagascar Hissing Cockroaches (Gromphadorhina portentosa), at the University of South Carolina are excellent mothers, at least for an insect! The females carry their developing embryos inside their abdomens to protect them from predators. They then "give birth" to live, young roaches that look a lot like their parents, except they are much smaller! Animals that carry their developing eggs internally are said to be ovoviviparous. This form of development probably leads to adaptive maternal effects on offspring. The newly hatched nymphs grow to weigh about as much as a mouse when fully grown.
