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 night Ardy, sleep well. ♥️🥰
Hi still From my Hotel bed.
Pam, my laptop had overheated, too. Took it to a shop, they opened it and blew some dust out. It helped. Nite. Pills.
Hi Gabi hope you are having fun with your family. I sure loved the photos.

Hello…just got caught up on the chat..not much time to post, so busy petsitting, Christmas get togethers, my pets and house, etc…we have out get together with our mom, siblings, tomorrow…really don’t like it after Christmas but that’s when it is this year..I won’t be stayiing as long as some since I’m petsitting. DH, DS and I had ours…mostly I got books, a calendar, treats…oh and a little wallet with an owl on it. FIL liked his comfy robe with a hood on it. Today my sister and I had our lunch and gift exchange at an Italian restaurant…she gave… Read more »
Hi Lynn you have been a busy lady! Are you pet sitting more than one? You had lunch with your sister today for gift exchange, so does that mean she won’t be with you, Mom and other siblings tomorrow? I guess DS was eating with friends. Enjoy shopping for snacks for tomorrow.
actually, I meant to say with our cousin..we exchanged gifts. My sister and I do actually have our own private one either tonight or tomorrow night..she doesn’t like to open ours in front of the others so we do that at my house. I’m petsitting two dogs. Tomorrow it will be her, me and DH (if he can make it), mom, brother…
I understand about you and your sister. A special bond there I think, sorta like me and Nancy. I hope tomorrow is good for you and your husband can make it.
well, we splurge a bit and likes to take her time maybe and doesn’t like people watching. DH has to be at his rentals when the gas is turned on sometime…between 8 a.m. and midnight 😮.sooo…not sure what he’s going to do, can’t imagine just being there all day waiting…
That doesn’t seem right. I thought he had a manager.
that’s not something she does…anyway, he probably wants to be there.
We understand Lynn💕
😘
Had a good idea you were busy — fun busy 💕
Hi Lynn. I would love to pet-sit! ♥️
Trying a new Irish cream. It sure is yummy
that looks good, I love salted caramel anything, I just recently found a twix bar that is salted caramel, yum yum
I loved salted caramel too.
our favorite store that closed had the best salted caramel candy bars…miss them and mostly the store and people and dogs!
i like salted caramel — yum
It is different I guess from regular Irish Creme, maybe a change of pace.
Sweeter but very good 😛
Sometimes sweeter is good. It would probably be good as a coffee creamer.
when I hear Irish or Italian cream, I just think of coffee flavoring or creamer
It can be as a stand alone drink, like a cordial
I dont waste it on coffee, I use whipping cream in my coffee….yum
I had Baileys yesterday … and paid for it off and on for the next 3 hours 💩💩 won’t be doing that again😔
oh my….no fun
What happened? You have drank Bailey’s a long time?
Oh no!!!!!!!!!!!! That isnt good!
i like Bailey’s — i was not a happy woman
Could it be something else caused it?
I’m still thinking about this. Lactose intolerant?
Bailey’s liquor? Love!
Ask me how I know 🙄
😁🤣😂. But Pam, what does it have to do with you? 🤣😂🥰♥️
😁
This is adorable and so true! 😀
Boxing Day is traditionally for making donations to charity, primarily observed in the U.K. 🎁
Happy Boxing Day — aka day after Christmas Mostly cloudy, heading to 70; other than a shower, which is already done, nothing else on the agenda 😎 These new slippers have already come in handy. This Dell laptop runs hot; it’s shut itself down because of overheating. Anyway, i have a floor fan facing me and it really helps keep the laptop cool; but my feet get so cold, even with a blankie on them. So last night. i put the slippers on and a blankie over my legs — VOILA! He did good! I took Kitty to 4-corners a… Read more »
Good morning Pam, I like your Boxing Day! It is also carry out a lot of extra trash day! They do make cooling pads for laptops, but sounds like you got it covered. They aren’t expensive though. Like your 4 corners photo.
i’ve tried diff cooling pads, none of them work that great. the floor fan is the most effective.
I hope you can angle it so it doesn’t blow in your face.
Hi Pam that is too bad that you’re laptop overheats I don’t suppose it would help to even get a a laptop thingy like I have and put on my lap or I put it on the bed?
i have a cooling pad for the laptop; it’s not particularly effective
I guess I don’t know what a cooling pad is I guess I’ll have to google it mines actually a map slash top
😯
i’ve tried a couple diff types; this one you posted was one of them — they’re all noisy.
Wasn’t a good review.
that would be cool to actually be at the 4 corners….my laptop does the same thing periodically, sometimes I keep a cookie cooling rack under it so the air can circulate lol…I wonder if anyone observes Boxing Day anymore
I have never observed Boxing Day Do they do that in the United States?
I think it is just a funny thing. Not the sport, but boxing up Christmas decorations.
Oh I know it’s not the sport OK but I thought it was an English thing not a United States thing
I didn’t know it was any kind of thing. 😁
Oh is that what it is
I don’t think they do here, I think it’s more of a British thing
Yeah, that’s what I thought
Hi Deb. I don’t usually have a problem with my ipad unless I use it a lot while the charging cord is plugged in. But my old laptop which Jo mostly used, we used a muffin tin inverted on our lap. It was more comfortable and it worked.
I always leave my laptop on my desk, but yeah putting something under it helps sometimes, I have heard of the cooling pads but never tried them and now not sure I will when Pam says they are not very effective…I use my tablet when I don’t feel like sitting at my desk
Oh my gosh I could never sit at a desk all day on my laptop. I can’t sit still but I think you know that. That’s why I have a laptop for my lap and I carry it everywhere I Go
I don’t sit at my laptop all day, I use my tablet when I want to be away from my desk…I sit at my laptop maybe an hour at a time throughout the day….but I can see with your RLS that can be a problem
I didn’t mean literally sit at my laptop all day sorry
😄
I don’t even own a desktop or a laptop, seems my iPad does everything I want. It is a large tablet about as big as a small laptop. I bought a detachable keyboard I’ve never used when I bought the iPad. I guess I should because I make more typos on this touch screen than I would on a keypad, but I just don’t want the extra bulk.
I don’t have a desktop either but yeah iPad/tablet are very convenient
Comfortable too.
I find that my tablet is not comparable to a computer or I should say laptop like storing just everything just not the same I would much rather use my laptop especially for storing my pictures
I don’t have near the photos you do so that is a big difference. My iPad is 256 gb so it holds quite a bit. I’ve had it a good while now and its storage is less than half full. So it works for me.
They do have iPads with as much or even more storage than your laptop. But I don’t know for sure, but I don’t think you can move things to an external storage. Maybe. I know I have a cable where I can move photos from a real camera to my iPad.
Deb, not particularly effective, but they are plenty Noisy and Uncomfortable on my legs.
thanks for the heads up
I know people in the U.K. who still observe Boxing Day
We had to almost stand on our heads to get a limb in each corner at the same time — it was more fun than half a foot in 2 corners
I would love to do that, you should have showed us that picture 😄
Is that why he bought you worm slippers well? Either way they did the trick. That’s great
I don’t know that he thought about why, he just knows i don’t normally wear real shoes; wormy or not 😄
i just couldn’t let it slide 😄
That wasn’t me that was me talking into my laptop
su-ure 🤔
I can see talking into my phone isn’t working very well
Good! because it was pretty funny 😄
I use talk text a lot and found you really have to talk clearly, my friend talk texts too and he is a mumbler so it’s kind of hard to decipher some of his “texts” lol
