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.

Thank you, aweet Debbie. I hate to see the sweet, innocent little babies suffer. Praying we can get it taken care of tomorrow. I can’t believe the timing, with the car. I missed chatting today. Sleep good, and have a beautiful morning. Love to you. 😘 🦜 💙🩵

Made a drop off at recycling before hitting the shower. Watched the NC-State/Vanderbilt game; Vandy won in the last second on a fumble recovery in the end zone. 🏈 Close game and what an ending!!!

Hello! We slept from 3:30 to now. Couldn’t get to the vet – car wouldn’t start, looked under hood and found a squirrel’s nest all around the battery. Cables all chewed, some rubber and some wiring. !!!!!! I ordered some probiotic stuff to mix with Dutchess’ food, the vet said that may help her feel better until we can get there. We don’t have anybody around here that we could get a ride from. Folks are pretty snotty. One has been here a year and my other next door neighbor has been here a year and a half.

Amazon prime w/deliver it btwn 4 and 8am tmrw. No vomiting, stools look good, eating pretty much okay, but trouble lying down. Tummy hurts, I believe. Keeps jumping up on me, wanting help. 😢 won’t play. I will think about the electrical tape idea, it could work, i think. I keep forgetting to get AAA. 😵‍💫
