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.

Yay we are back!!!
👍🏻
Hi HNF we are back😍 Happy Holidays🎄⛄
Thank you you as well
Thank you so much for whatever you guys did to get us back up. ♥️
Hi Karen Marie🙂
Hey Lin 🤗
I was just reading a post you wrote. Hope your headache eases! I have a friend who gets migraines and I feel for here. Not something I have ever had.I think she takes a homeopathic for it. And she has to aboid certain foods like chocolate. Your week sounded busy!! Can you relax tonight?
Thank you Lin. My headache is gone now, thank you . 🤗 They aren’t too bad these days, it’s more of the weird stuff going on in my eyes so that I can’t focus on anything. Drives me nuts! They just happened for no reason. And yes, I am relaxing now. 😘 I can’t figure out how to start a new conversation with you up at the top to get us out of this box. 😃
I’m horrible with tech stuff so don’t know how. I’ll post up at the top and see if you can reply. Glad your headache is better. I’ll post more in response, further at the top to get us out of thos box.
That was weird Ardyth😜
I had the same problem. It was a cloudflare error then I got a message that said to type the website address in.
Now I am regrouping and will go to posts.
Evening Karen Marie😍
Hey Julie! 😘😍 I’ve just been so flipping busy. Everybody is calling me and emailing me and texting me from everywhere. And then the usual stuff. And then the egg and eaglet at SWFL, then my migraine headache today. Then I think I shut down SPO. 🥴😱
Whoa Nellie!
Get this horse back under control!
I feel better now. I hope you are doing great tonight, Julie. 🥰
🤣😂. Well Karen you have been busy because you are popular! Everyone want to talk to Karen through various means. Not such a bad problem when you think of it.
I could look at it that way, Debbie. Nice thoughts, thank you. 🥰 Most were business though, and some were accidents. But the good ones were you ladies here! And I am very thankful for that! ♥️
You are loved. I’ve been telling you that a long time.
You are sweet. 🌹
Karen Marie when you get the auras, the eye squiggles try drinking some caffeine like a glass of Pepsi or coke a little cup of coffee the caffeine helps to stop the migraine, that’s what I do and don’t look at a screen let your mind calm down- hope you try the caffeine thing if you get another one-and I hope not😘
Thanks, Julie, I will definitely try that. 😍
I had nothing just tried refreshing then shut down and waited a bit the logged in
same here
I think I caused the problem somehow, by telling a website not to hook up with me again. They asked if I wanted to have it not hook up with anybody and I said yes. Thinking they meant anybody here at my house. Then SPO went down
Somehow, I think it might have been SPO at a website address I didn’t recognize.
I don’t think so Karen, not all of us.
Maybe not. 🤗
You didn’t do anything, it happened to all of us
🤗
Did you get a cloud flare error telling you that you had blocked SPO?
I had the cloud fare problem like a month ago and haven’t had a problem with it and I didn’t have it show up today the page just stopped working so I shut down
Ok, thanks. I feel better now. I’m not the only one. 😂🤣
Just happened to me too! I’ve been trying to get back on for several minutes. Will try to sign in again This is is Lin.
I see you Lin🖐
Peek a boo💛🙂
🤣.
Ignore my frantic email bout not being able to use SPO! Yes, the Reel worked and I got to see the sweet video with you and Nancy. You look so good and healthy. You and Nancy hve the same smile, Thanks for sending it. I love it. Were you able to open the video of Maisy doing then hula dance?
I haven’t seen Maisy. Who or what is that? Is it below?
silly girl😂
It was strange. I didn’t know others were in the same boat because I couldn’t get back on for a while. Well, now I know what Cloudfare is.LOL.
we had gremlins😂
Perfect analogy! Definitely seemed like a band of imps or rascals were behind it! How os sweet Jade tonight?
Dec 21 is always a difficult day; Mom died 11 years ago today. Cried my way thru “Going My Way”; too many Mom-references. 😢
I see Lynn’s all peopled-out; maybe you can get some quiet time now 🤗
Loved the video Debbie posted; you laughing was so cute 💗
Ardyth, Rick had the right idea doing the barter to get what he really needed. 😉
Julie, we can commiserate together, Packers lost and i’m pretty sure the Broncos are going to do the same 😔
Found what i want for Christmas ↓↓
So sorry Pam I know how close you were to her, your Dad too. Our Moms died 4 months apart.
I’m sorry Debbie {{HUGS}}
Hugging right back.
💖
I am sorry about ur Mom too, Debbie. ♥️🌸
Most everyone we talk to here has lost a parent or both. Both of my parents lived to mid 80’s so I guess I was lucky.
Yes, I think you were lucky. My dad died at 39 and my mom died at 71.
That candy won’t cause weight gain.
Hi Pam😂 I’m laughing at your Christmas gift😘Hugs for you sweetheart with your dear Mother in mind💖
Rick loves to barter….he just wanted to trade those peppers because he cant give them away!!
😄 Chuck does too
I know how you feel, my dad was killed Dec13 – two days after my BD and we already had presents for him under the tree
Horrible for you {{HUGS}} 💔
That happened with Charlene’s Dad too; she lost him on Dec8, 2 days after her b-day; he was out shopping and had a heart attack.
💖
How sad♥💖
💖
I’m sorry Ardy. My Dad died Dec 14, 2006.
😢😥
Pam, I am so sorry for your loss. It is hard to lose your Mom. I lost my Mom in 2007. Just about killed me. We still have wonderful memories though. ♥️♥️
Thanks Karen and I’m sorry for your loss too {{HUGS}} The memories are a lot of fun
Thank you. Yes, they are. 🤗
I’m still around I’m following a news story
YIKES! Jacksonville is kicking our collective Bronco-behinds 😭
😯
Good evening everyone💛 I hope everyone is well. I’ve just signed on so will scroll a bit to try to catch up. On my end – a busy but good week. Happy some of our snow has melted and some of the ice damming I get at my porch is lessening. We are die for even warmer temps this coming week which might leave us with a not so white Christmas! Finally pulled out the boxes of Christmas stuff and decorated. I tend to leave it up till sometime in March. Helps illuminate the grey of these long winters. Have… Read more »
Lin! This is a beautiful piece of work 💖 — i know why you had to have it 😘
Ooh, thanks Pam! I feel a tinge less guilty! I’m more comfortable giving to others but I do confess I love having them. Here is the bigger one.
It’s like a living wall arrangement like those are Hens and Chicks😍
You are right! They do look like hens and chicks😄
What a beautiful piece of wall art!!!!
Do you really keep them up until March? I will take mine down after Christmas and leave the tree until after New year’s
I know it might seem silly but yes, I leave the tree and a few other Christmas decor out through Winter. The long days of cold and wet and grey can get me down so the decor and lights make me happy. I live alone so I get to indulge in my whims…lol. It is a small tree barely 3 ft. high and sits perfectly on my puzzle table at my bay window, So doesn’t take up alot of floor space.
Oh that is cute Lin. Looks very nice and cozy beside your little fireplace. Of course you should do as you please. Why not?
Ha ha. My little fake fireplace. I have two, one on either side of the TV bookcase. I have a real fireplace but had it closed off when I bought the house. It isn’t even in the living room which makes no sense. Ya gotta love old houses. It is at the very end of the space that could be considered a dining area near the kitchen. But you can’t see the flame from the kitchen. I like to watch a fireplace in my living room while I’m reading or watching TV.
Bet the total effect is beautiful. I thought somehow you lived in a new subdivision. I love a fireplace.
Oh sweet pea, you have me all wrong…lol. I would hate a new subdivision. i’m a second hand Rose Goodwill gypsy who loves old established neighborhoods like the one I live in with lots of old trees and different shaped older homes. That’s my cup of tea not neighborhoods that are modern and every house looks the same in a homeowner’s association with more cement than trees! Oh no!😁
I don’t really have you wrong just thought I saw a photo of your house once. Guess not. I love how you described yourself. You curtaining have a knack with words!
Agreed.
Are you asleep Debbie?
No I just couldn’t think of anything much to say other than just respond to other people’s ’post.
Okay, that’s fine of course. I was just making sure you were okay and I didn’t want to keep sending messages if you were in bed. 😍😘 I did look for posts from you, but I missed a couple of them an hour or so ago for some reason.
Oh, what a pretty little thing! 💕 I would leave it up all year. My Christmas tree has been up for 20 years, downstairs. I just cover it up and uncover it whenever.
Wow Lin that is gorgeous. What is the art form? I love that. That should make you think of spring. And I love squirrels! Except when they eat your gas line and cost you a lot of money. See if the fb link below Ardy posted will work for you.
I loved looking at you and nancy , i had to laugh, too. You both look so good ! There is sound, too.😁.
Going to the baltic sea for christmas very early tuesday morning.
Merry christmas again and byeeee. Good nite.😘.
Thanks Gabi. Were you able to see the video or just the photo? Hope you have a fun and safe trip. Merry Christmas.
Video and photo. Video was so nice and with sound. 😅, me gone to bed now. Hugs.
Pic and video with sound. So nice !
Me off to bed now. Hugs.😘.
Oh good! Good night Gabi Habibi.
Gabi you get to see the Hermit Crabs😍 have a wonderful time is DDG going with you too?
Thanks and Yes.
Will your daughter go?
Yes debbie.
Howdy Lin😍 that art piece is so beautiful😘 They snow that’s left is all dirty now, my drive way a slippery slope
Don’t fall.
Hi, Just catching up with messages after the incident we all had. I got the art at Booth 121 on Monona Drive. Owner made the art.
It’s a fun place and has all sorts of stuff. Yep, grey wet mush everywhere. Can you believe we might get into the 50’s!!
How pretty, Lin. Never seen anything like it! 💚❤️
Just left you a message at the very top.
I went to early church and then Walmart for just a few things. Rick took a baggie of those hot scorpion peppers to the Farmers Market. He found a booth that had a bag with the makings for salsa for $7 so he asked the guy if he would do a trade…..so we are having tacos for supper.
Another beautiful day, sunny and 81°
Hi Ardy. Tacos sounds delish. What a smart thing for Rick to do – trading at the market. I imagine early Americans did that too!
Could you share some of that warm climate🙂
Rick is a guy that likes to barter
He’s good at it😍
Good work Rick.
Yummy on the tacos Ardyth, wonderful the vendor would do a trade, I don’t think most would do that on a food item for safeties sake food safety
The Longhorn rescue dogs living their best life Black is Stella, Boxer is Trixie, the one laying down is Christmas she was rescued 2 years ago at Christmas time, they make me smile😃
😁 The black one must have had frostbite ears like Jade.
Her ears were shredded its like she has 4 ears, she was found like that and was just skin and bones these dogs are in Texas
Poor babies. But not any more.
Not anymore these dogs were found at gas stations-people just dump them there,Texas is known for all the abandoned animals they have-and the state does nothing about it😪
So sad.
They have the Houston ASPCA but no local organizations that really help some people organize and try to trap them but they have no shelters to take them too. That’s were the state could kick in and help, there’s not even fines for animal abuse, people don’t fix their animals they just take it and dump it if it gets pregnant-theres so many puppies and kittens born out in the wild because of the Mom’s being dumped-people even move and leave their pets behind, its a very hard life for these animals who just end up starving to death or… Read more »
So sad.
Oh Julie, that is just so disgusting about the animal abuse in texas. We have very strict animal control laws. People go to jail here.
😳🤯🥺😮💨😞😟
Hi Julie. Where are they? Is it a cam? Beautiful dogs! Did you go to any of the Solstice events today? I was torn between going to the bonfire event at Olbrich but couldn’t find anyone who was free to go so I ended up staying snug and warm at home. How is Judy’s brother doing?
I read more info in the scrolls. Are they now in WI? You are so right about the neglect and abuse down in Texas. I lived in Albuquerque many years and even there, it was the same. Esp. pit bulls which were used for fighting and then discarded and many chihuahuas just dumped and abandoned. When I lived in the South, it was abandoned hound dogs and injured roosters from cock fights.
