Live Hummingbird Nest Cam
This is a live broadcast of a wild female hummingbirds nesting. There are several Hummers that nest in this yard. Some have been given names such as Bella, Rosie and Luna. Their nests are located in Ficus trees 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). Bella lays 1 or 2 eggs per clutch. You can expect to see them hatch after about 17 days from the date they are laid. The chicks will continue to grow in the nest for about three to four weeks before fledging. She has been laying 4 to 5 clutches each year for several years. When it's not nesting season you will see a Hummingbird feeder on the live cam. For more information about hatches, camera set-up and more check out bellahummingbird.com.
We have a skunk and a possum both outside now.
At almost 9pm it is still in the 80s here!! Tmrw morning I plan to take some groceries to my DM and I hope to pick up some homemade Cranberry Pecan Chicken Salad from Earth Fare for Mom and me to eat for lunch. Shower time now for me. Wishing all a safe and peaceful evening
Sounds so good!
debbie, i answered far below. have a restful night.
when you said this about everyday things.
pam , you wrote, you are not allowed to hang a hummer feeder because of the bears. what kind of bears you have? in europe, we have brown bears, but only in certain areas, like romania .they come out of the woods there at night, and go after trash cans. there have been accidents with people, too. i guess some brown bears also live in the mountains in italy, austria and switzerland, but only a few. do you have these black bears there, where you are at? or even grizzly? do they attack people ? i sure hope not!
@ WW – I replied to your “two beaks” comment way down below
have seen it ,dear kathy. “good eyes” only with my glasses on my nose. too bad, bella-girl did not have pollen on the beak, or she would have been the two-beaked pollinator. good grief! what an odd word – creation.(took it from terminator) :)) good night -i guess that is enough from me for today.
we have a bird with a “perky tail”, too.it`s called wren.it is very tiny, but cute.
How wonderful that y’all have “perky tail” wrens
In my area we have Carolina Wrens which I love so much
They sing very loudly!
