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.

Hi.I signed out but then read what looks like a generic (to all members) email from SPO. If I understand it correctly, the falling snowflakes we are presently seeing on SPO will continue until midnight tomorrow night. Then there will be some type of surprise. I won’t be able to be on sadly until the moving snow stops. So will wish you Happy New Year now dear friend. Talk to you next year!🙂💛

Okay, I’m going to be the weird one but I don’t like the moving snow flakes. Too visually overwhelming. Any way I can stop it on my screen without interrupting it for those who are enjoying it?

I don’t think there is a way to stop things like this that everyone gets. You could email HNF and ask him. They do become a bit more, I don’t know what word I want, after awhile. I guess you put it well.

I just did. I don’t want to interrupt everyone else seeing it. Will see what he says. I can handle the flakes. It is the movement that bothers my eyes.

I’m back. I should get a longer charge cord so I can stay on while charging. Looks like a trip to Best Buy is coming🙂

I have one of those fancy-dancy surge protectors; the outlets roll so it can handle large/small plug-ins

I’ve got a really long charging cord. It is much longer than the 6 foot one I’m using now. I bought it especially if I am hospitalized again. Sometimes it really helps to have a long one. I probably got it on Amazon. Just pay attention to be sure it works with whatever model ipad you have.

On my way to bed, but do you have a battery saver option? Sorry for your problems, Lin. Technology isn’t all it’s made out to be. I hope you can get it squared away soon. 🤗

It’s okay Karen. I can charge okay. I just want to get a longer cord so I can sit in my old lady recliner and type while charging🙂
Now go to bed and get snuggly🙂

Did the site go down today? I have no information on any post today, other than one by Ardyth at 3 something in the morning, until this afternoon at 5:00. I also have a bunch of like posts from somebody named Jill. Does anyone know what’s going on?

Hi Karen. No, to my knowledge nothing happened to the site today. There were some posts most of the day I think. I was gone about 3 hours, not all that long. Are you sure the posts from Jill were at this site?

That’s it!. Thank you Debbie. I did a couple of quick checks at the SWFL eagle site at about 6:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. today. She responded to those posts and a bunch of previous posts. I have never seen her before. I keep forgetting that posts aren’t split up by site.

I was still not getting anything from the site for over 12 hours. Post from Ardyth around 3:00 a.m. and then nothing till 5 p.m. I haven’t a clue what went on today I hope everyone is okay. I’m off to bed now. Love to you Debbie. 💤

Hi Karen Marie. I must have come on sometime after that happened. Didn’t notice anything then. Only thing I’m now noticing now since I’ve come back on after charging my Ipad is the snowflakes.

Hello all. I was busy all morning and into the afternoon and took a little nap at about 2:30 and got up about 15 minutes ago. Lots of stuff going on, the refrigerator, other stuff around the house, groceries, just one of those days. I am going to go back to bed after I eat something. I am really tired. I started reading posts, and I might make it soon, but I hope everyone is okay tonight. 😍🤗 Kind of missing Olive. 🙁

Thanks Pam, 🤗 I plan to get some serious rest. I’m going to act like a movie star and put on a sleep mask, use ear plugs, snuggle the baby next to me, cover up, and just be done with it all for a while. 💤 Can’t wait! Just have to get this eating requirement out of the way first. 😀

Having to listen to a growling tummy could definitely interfere with sleep requirements 😉

Sounds like a lot going on Karen. Did the refrigerator get better or worse? Sounds like a busy day but a good nap in between.

It got better, and then went back to worse. Been experimenting with things, but there’s such a long wait time to see if it worked. May have to call a “guy.” I’ll be better tomorrow. Talk to you then, honey. 😘
