My dad just picked up this webcam for doing some video conferences from his living room for a group both in his house and remote, he seemed happy with it. It's a wider angle camera with 120 degrees field of view which might work better for your use if you want to stream a view of everything.
Not sure how well the mic on it would work outside though.
