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.
Good Morning! Our friends that live in Oregon – used to live here years ago are here in town for three weeks this time. Jacqueline had major hip surgery and needed special equipment to help her get in and out of bed and the shower so she ordered from Amazon and had it sent to us so Stephen came by yesterday to pick it up and they were too tired when they arrived Tuesday night.. While we were outside a truck drove by and they were taking pictures of Gary’s house and then they parked and got out. He was… Read more »
Wow!!! Quite interesting!!! You enjoy tonight and the cake sounds delicious!!!! ❤️🍰
I hope so as I have never made this cake before.
Your a good baker😘
Good Morning Ardyth, good on taking the meds for your HB.Tums never worked good for me, its like they are to weak. Hope you had a good night with Miss Nikki😘
The Island is a little piece of paradice😍
I understand going back to something you know has worked before because dealing with heartburn is miserable…nice little getaway there in Alaska
I have quite a few capsules left…lets just hope she will give me another prescription!
if it’s omeprazole you can buy it over the counter
Yes but I get 180 pills for $0 so I dont want to pay for it if I dont have to.
Good morning Ardy. I don’t blame you for taking your acid medicine. She should have discussed it with you and at least provided a temporary alternative. Gary’s son’s island looks beautiful. Do you think you might have a second Airbnb in your neighborhood.
Is Jacqueline the friend with the large RV who wintered in Tucson? I’m surprised she needs the special equipment after hip surgery. Enjoy tonight with friends. Your cake will be delicious.
Ok Lisa and Karen. I’m gonna say good night, but what fun we had. Love you both and wish you a good sleep and a peaceful heart.
‘Good night dear Bella buddies, and that includes you peepers. Wishing all a most pleasant night. See you tomorrow morning. Love to all.
Love ❤️ to you Debbie!!!! Casey and Macie, too. Can’t forget Jo!!!!
🥰♥️
Goodnight, sweet Debbie. Sweet dreams. Love and hugs. 😘❤️ I may be up a while after laughing so much! 😅 It was so funny!
I guess we will continue with the fun on Thursday. I hope for a better day for Ardyth and her sweet baby. Can’t get them off my mind. How late will you stay up????
You in that high altitude and nice dry climate….
Hey, while I was waiting for you, I was watching something on TV and accidentally got involved.. I probably will be up for a little while. Yes, nice and dry, and cold. 39 now. I will throw my robe on and finish the show, and then Dutchess will escort me to bed. Still laughing, by the way. I hope you sleep really well, and feel as good as possible in the morning. 😘😍
Prayers for sweet little Michi. 🙏
Lisa are you watching football? Tampa just tied the Bears. They did good on getting the touch down and then a two point extra point conversion.
I forgot they were playing Tony. Oh heck. I’m so glad you mentioned it. I completely forgot. Our local station should have it.
There I go again. Typing to fast and not editing before I hit send
I have a time with typos. I’m using my phone right now and it is worse.
I’m sorry I didn’t mention it earlier.
They are playing on wednesday?
Yep. Hummm. Now that I think about it I bet it is a repeat. Jo put it on and she gets all these channels that show repeats and I don’t realize it. I wondered why no one talked earlier about them playing! Good grief.
Oh my gosh. We are both silly at times!!! You are right Karen. It’s a repeat. Karen is still alert, because she is on Mtn zone time. It’s still early wher she is!!!!
Yes, and I slept in today, which makes me really smart and alert!! 🤣 I was actually looking to see if I was missing something on this, though.
🤣😄😂🥰. Yes you ARE really smart.
I just happened to remember it was “no football” Wednesday. 🤣 Oh, you guys are so cute!!!! 😂🥰
🎶Rub it in rub it in. 🎶. 😁
She can’t resist the chance to!!!!
It’s just too good. 😅😂😍
Butt.
Oh yeah. 🥰
Stinker.
Yes I deserve it. But it is the funniest thing I’ve ever in a long time! I am still laughing. I’m usually on your end.
I’m still tickled over it.
Me too. You two are so funny. 😂
On my butt?
No stinker, wrong end Of the joke!!! 😃😝
😁. I think I’d better go to bed before I get in any more trouble. When everyone else gets online in the morning they will wonder what we were drinking,
You are right. I am ready too. I’m thinking Lisa is probably ready also.
I guess I may as well be.
Aw. . . Would you like to stay up longer?
Oh no!!! If you are sleepy, go for it!!!!!
Good night sweetheart.
No I am not sleepy. But I usually sign off when Debbie does, because no one else is up. I’m surprised you are still up. You’re 2 hours ahead of me. 🫠
I am a night owl, after all.
Yes you are. Good night sweetie.
Goodnight honey.
Goodnight to you dearest Debbie. Thanks for caring!!! Sleep tight 😴. 😽 sweet dreams to you!!!! Karen too. It will be lonely 😞 now.
I can stay up and talk. I’m wide awake 🤣
Are you going to have a midnight snack?
I’ve been paying more attention to you and Karen than the tv! I didn’t even think.
All this thin air up here. 😃
Oh, that’s right. The higher altitude with less oxygen!!!
Right! 🙃
All this thin air. I said this somewhere else, but it goes better here.
Yes, Pikes Peak, etc….
When are you expecting snow in your areas , Debbie and Karen????
We don’t have a lot of snow here, especially at the end of the year. Our chances increase in January and February. Anything before January is usually just a little and doesn’t hang around long.
You probably don’t have wet snow if it’s this time of the year???? How far are you from Lexington????
We are 85-90 miles away. They don’t have much snow either until the new year.
Oh, you are not that close . What larger city are you closest to????
Lexington is our closest city. Somerset is bigger than us but I don’t call it a city. We are about 85 miles to Bowling Green but it isn’t a real city either.
We usually have it by Halloween. But this summer was so dry, I don’t know if we will even receive it by the end of the year.
We usually don’t.
😂🤣😆 this is the kind of stuff I dream about happening to me.
😂
So Funny 😄
It is!! 😅😂 I am quite “tickled.” I was the one wondering how I missed it, and that’s when Wednesday popped into my head.
Im glad you remembered.
I’m thinking maybe I should have just said nothing and see how long it would have gone on. 😂😁😅
Until Sunday.
You think?
Yep.
😅🤣
Well this day is done and my pork chop is to so Good night dear Bellas I looked for the moon and its raining right now, maybe a wintery mixI’m looking for snow flakes😍 normally we would have a half foot of snow by now its late
Goodnight to you Julie!!! Sleep 😴 well with little Jade!!! Maybe you will have ❄️ snow when you wake!!!!
Enjoy your pork chop!!!!! 😋 See you tmrw!! SED 😍 😘
Same here with snow. Dry as a bone now. Not even a drop of rain.
I’m not sure how I missed this post. I’ve been clearing my ball but it never took me here.
Hope you enjoyed your food. Good night Julie. Hope you sleep well. We have rain, I hear a little thunder. We haven’t had much rain. Love you and see you tomorrow. Hug Jadie for me.
Julie and Jade might be asleep by now!!! Julie will enjoy 😊 waking up to your message!!!
Sounds like Some of you may wake to snow!!! Where has Pam been today????
She was very brief…….at least I think I saw her. Hummmmm.
I had responded to this somewhere below, where I talked about us also normally having snow now, but i forgot to sign off right. 🤯 Anyway, I hope you sleep great and have sweet dreams, Butterfly. 🦋 😘 SED 🦅
I cant keep up with chat anymore…sorry
We had tacos and I have had heartburn all day
TIME FOR BED i am tired
the moon. good night
Unique 😅
Good night Ardyth sweet dreams for all of you😘
Good night dear Ardy. Get your rest and sleep. Sending love. Hope the heartburn lets you sleep.
The heartburn was awful….I slept 2 hours and then it woke me up. I could no longer lay down – I had to sit up.
Nikki waa coughing and coughing so I came out to the couch at 11:15 pm with her.
I am just going to have to take my prescription again starting in thr morning. I wonder why she took me off the meds?
Good morning Ardy, I’m so sorry. The PPI drugs (Nexxum, Prilosec, Omeprazole and other generics) are not recommended for long term use. For years I was on the 40 mg dose and asked my Gastro specialist about it was not supposed to be used for a long time. He told me I had Barrets and it was necessary for me. Then after the Barrett’s improved the dose was lowered to 20 mg which I still take. So that is why your doc probably took you off it. Were you taking the 40 mg or 20? Did you try the baking… Read more »
Goodnight sweet Ardyth!!!
Goodnight, Ardyth. Rest well. I hope tmrw is better. 😘
I have a really strange feeling that Casey is eating supper right now. I’m going to join him real quick, only I’m going to not be there. I should be back in about 20 minutes. I haven’t eaten yet all day. Starting to feel it.
I needed to cook some thing so I might be gone when you come back Lady Bug SED😘🐞
Karen!!! You and Julie need to stop going all day and not eating.
I ate today, I didn’t eat yesterday because of the fasting blood draw ate when I got home
There have been other days you haven’t eaten all day.
I’m going to cook a pork chop for dinner
Sounds good. I’m cooking a DiGornos wood fired pizza.
That sounds good Debbie!!!
What are you gonna eat Lisa and how are you feeling after your infusion? Do you do much cooking?
Had homemade hamburgers tonight. Lettuce, tomato 🍅, pickles and 🧅 onions. I do prefer to eat home cooked meals. My eating out days are over. I’m a real homebody.
Feeling Okay. Just the usual nasty all over- body neuropathy and arthritis. What do you take for your arthritis????
Thank you for asking.
You have N and A? Me too! No picnic, for sure. You made that hamburger sound so-o-o good! Send me one, please. 🤣
I
would love ❤️ to send you one!!!
oh my !!! So you have N an A too. It’s so blasted uncomfortable 😳.
Yes, it is a weird feeling, in my feet and ankles, and lymphedema in legs. Little kids comment on my feet. 😁 How many burger patties did you cook?
Four patties. I save some of them for later.
Yes, it is a weird feeling. I dont have lymphedema, so I feel for you on that….
Thanks. There are so many things out there for us to “catch.”
sounds like the lymphedema isn’t any better. ☹️
No. 😒
Hugs my sweet friend. Are you getting any treatment. You have so many health issues I forgot this one. Sorry.
Thanks, but I’m doing okay. This one will go away one day. I had it many rooms ago, after surgery as well, and it had almost gone away when I had another surgery in 2024. I have to quit doing that.
Yes enough surgeries.
Agreed. For sure. Except for hands and shoulders.
I could probably use both of those.
They are not so hard on the body. From what I’ve heard.
Not the organs and not as dangerous. But I’ve heard shoulder surgery is a hard one.
Hmm … I need left shoulder and right hand.
Lisa do you live alone?
Oh no. Bill and I have been together for over 22 yrs.
I really didn’t know and have been afraid to ask. I finally got brave and asked and held my breath. I’m glad you have someone with you, especially with your health issues.
You don’t have to be afraid to ask. Yes, we both have our own set of health issues, so we try to balance helping.
I’ve been wanting to ask ever since I met you and got to know you.
I’m glad you have someone to help you too, Lisa.
So the treatments worsen neuropathy and arthritis? I take Orencia shots and hydroxychloroquine pills for RA.
Yum on the hamburgers. I like your veggies and lots of pickles and onion, then mustard. Sometimes I get wild and want some ketchup too.
I’m more of a homebody than I once was. I do like bringing take out home. Home cooking food without the home cooking! Win win.
Ketchup AND mustard. 😊
Sometimes!
I know 🤣 I was just saying always here. I can’t do one without the other on a burger. It’s just not right. 😂
🤣. We got to have it right!
Yep! 😅😂
Instead of putting mustard and ketchup directly on the burger 🍔, I dip the burger into the ketchup and mustard….it’s less messy that way. It also allows me to enjoy the burger without each bite having the ketchup and mustard!!!!
I usually put the mustard on the burger and do the ketchup like you. I understand about making the bites different! Me too!
It’s funny. No different than dipping chicken nuggets…
You are right!
That’s a good idea! I will try that. I wonder why i never thought of it before!? Especially raising a kid!
😁
Right, take home food for eating at home!!!! WIN- WIN alright.
oh yes, Karen and Debbie, I forgot to mention pickles, mustard and ketchup.
You did say pickles.
Do you have mom and pop style meat and veggie kind of places around you?
I love those pizzas!!!!
I like DiGornos rising crust overall, but the wood fire has a good crust.
I like the filling the best! We can share well! 😅
Yes I prefer the sauce on the rising crust too. The wood fired doesnt have much if any red sauce.
Is there an additional sauce?
I can’t tell. I think there is a small amount of red sauce.
What kind of DiG pizza?
Fire cooked Supreme but I only saw pepperoni and I few peppers. I added lots of onion, mushrooms, green bell pepper.
Oh that sounds so good!
I just snacked here and there. Got busy. I’ve actually done pretty good at eating twice a day. Now I need to add a nice snack in between. 😊
So you have eaten some, that’s ok. Two meals or a couple snacks and one meal is ok too. You said you hadn’t eaten all day that isn’t good. That can cause fainting and you have a history of that. Remember falling and hurting your face! Don’t want that for you. Not trying to tell you what to do but I care and worry. Scary when you fall.
I know you are not yelling at me. But I did trip over something when I hurt my face on the wall. I do need to stay more well-nourished, you are right. I am trying to keep quick things around. Like a banana, oatmeal cookies, and other goodies.
Good choices!
Thank you. I have been researching.
For healthy snacks? Or maybe what makes your sugar best for you?
Debbie, you did really well with last night’s little mystery. So I’m going to see if you find this post. I just wanted to let you know that I really enjoy talking with you. You are a sweet friend. I hope you sleep really good and have sweet dreams. Maybe I will fly by. Good night sugar-pie. 🩷💚💙🩵
Awwwwwww how sweet. Sweets from the sweet. And here comes the smultz police
😍😘
Good evening….it was a grey day, rained for awhile…we went to lunch at a coffee shop..I got a cheese panini, tomato bisque soup, and a chai latte…when we got home DH had to start working on his cemetery stuff for the meeting tonight which he’ll be going to soon…he spent the rest of the day working on that…I didn’t do much…sorted through a small pile and papers and stuff and that’s it…oh did some coloring and a crossword puzzle…think I’ll put on a show and read in a bit.
You got to go for lunch Lynn😋
Glad you and hubby made it to lunch together.
Sound pleasant!!!
Hi Lynn grey rainy days caan be depressing or enjoyable…glad you went to lunch, sounded good.
Lunch sounds tasty, Lynn. I was watching stuff on the internet for a couple of minutes the other day, and I saw on a recorded AGT a female contestant who was somehow changing outfits while barely moving. Did you happen to see that one?
I do remember a woman who did that, she was fun to watch.
Oh good! I had to watch it 4 times and couldn’t stop laughing. And then one with a guy singing a sad song using his corded microphone, and kept falling over his equipment 🤣😂
He was funny. I remember him too.
Oh yes, he was so great. I was laughing so loud, I couldn’t control myself.
I saw her too, and there was another one who did that on another season. I could take off one sock that fast.
