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.

I went into the bathroom and out the window were two deer. They were probably 15-20 feet away. One had small horns, the other no horns. The one with horns was looking right at me. I sorta stood back. I think he wasn’t sure if he was seeing me, maybe he just heard me. They lingered about 5 minutes probably. Then walked to my bedroom area. By the time I got to my bedroom window I didn’t see them.

Good grief Karen. If it hit a house there would have been a fire. Be careful. Is it still storming? If so keep shoes on and Dutchess near.

My salad got huge, I just kept putting more stuff on it😋 The beer battered cod I got at Aldes was delish, batter crispy. I cooked it in the oven at 425 for 12 minutes and it turned out perfect-so I kind of had fish fry😃

My salads always turn out big because I do the exact same thing, keep adding. But I am not a fan of blue cheese. I might like it mixed with the French dressing. I got a summer salad that had strawberries, blueberries, walnuts, etc. and I think feta cheese with raspberry vinaigrette. I loved it! Then I got a similar salad at Culver’s and didn’t like it at all. It was because of the blue cheese.

Its easy to make them big have to put on tomatoes, cukes, peppers, scallions, mushrooms, cottage cheese, cheddar cheese😋

I put on all those things except the cheese, but I’ll probably add back just some American cheese, not the cottage.

Yes, fake cheese. I eat very little cheese and that is what Jo will eat.

I bet you did enjoy being home. I was busy, went a few places, but wasn’t feeling great, so it was no fun. Anyway, I’m hanging in there, I’ll make it through.

Nothing major, just old age. Back hurts, feet are swollen, and i’m tired. They will be fixed once I go to bed and sleep. 🙂

No, not yet. Lymphedema in my legs and feet. And my bones still suffer from previous prednisone use.

There is no treatment for you? Some people have leg pumps to get the fluid moving. Seems there should be a way to reverse those years on the prednisone.
