The Monterey Bay Aquarium has some webcams, I think one is in their Otter tank. Most are inside the Aquarium, but they have some cams out in the Bay too. O guarantee of something interesting at any given time, but if you watch long enough, something will come along.
Other aquariums also have webcams, and likeky some zoos too. I found some if them wirh a web search.
The local library has a bee hive on its roof, and for a while there was a webcam. There are similar webcams aimed at very specific things like rare bird nests.
