Live Hummingbird Nest Cam – Oceanside, CA

Your watching a live broadcast of wild female hummingbirds nesting.

There are several Hummers that nest in this yard. Their nests are usually located bushes and no larger than the size of a golf ball. The nest is made from feathers, leaves and other parts of plant matter. She then wraps this material together with spider webs. The eggs she lays are about the size of a breath mint(tic-tac). Hummingbirds lay 1 or 2 eggs per clutch. You can expect to see them hatch after about 14-16 days from the date they are laid. The chicks will continue to grow in the nest for about three to four weeks before fledging. More information about the cams, set-up or to make a donation please visit alyssasnaturesanctuary.org.

Oh yes he did, the tumor that they removed next to his heart was cancer so dont know if or how they will treat the area because they cant do radiation that close to the heart. He is in Afib and were going to jump start his heart or whatever it is called yesterday but JoAnn hadnt heard from him.

Good morning Bella Buds. Jo got her phone call already. We will need to leave at 6 AM in the morning, maybe a few minutes before. Urggggg! I’ve already had a shower this morning as I have a doc appointment this afternoon, and I’ve done Casey’s treat for today and tomorrow. I need to check his other food to be sure I have all he needs for today, tomorrow and perhaps Friday. Not easy for me to be on the go 3 days in a row. Get ‘er done!
‘Hope everyone has a good start to your day.

I have to leave off my important rheumatoid shot to be vaccinated. The disease, RA, is treated in one way by lowering the immune system, the shots do that. You don’t want to lower the immune system when taking a vaccine because the purpose of the vaccine is to raise immunity to the disease, in this case flu and Covid. But that also means my RA is not being treated. So I don’t want to have to go through this process more than once and be without my RA treatment more than once.

julie

Oh you have to stop your RA to get vaccinated, now I understand-so get them all at once is more helpful and then you don’t have to go back again😘

KyDebbie
September 30, 2026 12:05 pm
Reply to  julie

Going back isn’t the problem but going without the medicine I don’t like to do. My doc office may not have all the vaccines. If she doesn’t I’ll take my RA shot today and schedule the vaccines at Walgreens, or whoever has both, and work around that schedule with my RA shot.

No, that is why I don’t know if she has the vaccines. I was supposed to be there next week for a routine appointment but I rescheduled today so if she doesn’t have them I have more time. Our Covid/flu season really hasn’t started yet.she has always recommended me get vaccines mid October. I know your season is earlier.

It is a lot of extra things for me to think about and plan. Already this morning I’ve taken a shower at a time I never take a shower and made two extra meals for Casey for tomorrow and will make a third extra meal tonight for tomorrow. I’m going to eat lunch earlier than usual because my doc appointment is when I usually eat. I have to do more thinking and planning than most other people because of dealing with my walking issues and energy problems. It adds up. I did get good news, the lady that called to… Read more »
