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 texted Karen this morning to check on her. She didn’t post at all …….

She had said something about being away for up to a week with family or friends. I don’t expect her back for another day or two. 😊

Good evening, ladies! I got my days and nights mixed up quite badly the last couple of days. Haven’t done that in a long time. It’s from getting so tired and taking too many naps. What used to be 1-2 hour naps have turned into 4-7 hour naps. 😵😵‍💫 And so many weird things happening. I’ve been having dreams I should write down for a Rod Serling type story – seriously! I think they would sell. 😉 I’m not complaing, just sharing parts of my excting life. I plan on watching sports this weekend and getting back on schedule. I… Read more »

What a coincidence Karen! I was just typing the post right above yours and up popped this post. I know you have a lot going on in your life, both your health and life circumstances. You are flat out worn out. Maybe a bit depressed to. Getting sleep here, there and around. With the longer naps and no pattern. Enough to wear anyone out. Car, husband, Dutchess, you, extra expenses, worry. I had long, involved, vivid dreams in the hospital. I think some of the dreams involved something happening to me or around me, but my brain turned that into… Read more »

Yes, yes, and yes, Debbie. You are probably right about the reasons for my dreams. I have dreams similar to your’s, but I have never had one that lasts as long as it was true, up to one day, that’s a long time! I do have some really weird dreams, like floating around doing things, or reaching up and grabbing a star from the sky, things like that. They are make believe stuff, but freaky, too. If I could just force myself to wake up and write them down right away, I would remember them. But I just remember bits… Read more »

Somehow Rays doesn’t fit Baseball to me. I want it to be a swim team, maybe some other pool sport, surfing team, sailing or the like. I’m sure Rays is because they are located near salt water.

Actually started when the team began in 1997, as the name Tampa Bay Devil Rays from the Sting Ray floating in waters. Than the name Devil was removed (maybe they didn’t like the reference). They put a little more emphasis on the actual sunshine 🌞 rays, although still using the sting ray. In the Stadium, a large pool has a number of fish floating. People like it!!! If you recall hurricane Milton in ‘24, completely tore the roof off the stadium.

ohh 😲, I do like your Rays posting Julie. I’ve saved it. Heck, if the bad weather hasn’t postponed the game until Saturday (tomorrow). I think 🤔 it’s 8:00 pm Saturday, and Sunday at 5:00 pm. I just saw the Brewers hat picture of them getting off the plane as they left the nice California weather. Well Julie, I hope you will tune in to the game tomorrow with me!!!!

Can’t play in the rain-it ruins the infeild plus it can get slippery and the base runners can slide and in jure a knee or ankle and no playing if there’s lightning

Makes sense. I don’t think any sports play outside when it is lightning! Tennis on anything but clay can’t play during an even slight sprinkle because of the slickness.
