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.
Did Karen go to sleep? It has been a few days since we heard from Lynn. I’m beginning to think something is going on.
No, I’m still here, Debbie. I’m just moving slowly through the kitchen, trying to fix something to eat. I did notice that Lynn isn’t here either. I hope she is okay.
You eat and rest! Don’t worry about chat.
I am blurry eyed again. The words are mixed together for some reason. I thought I saw the name Lin instead of Debbie. Sorry, Debbie.
You need to eat then go back to bed. Don’t push it.
I just finished some soup.
I’m glad you ate. That is good for you. Good night Karen. Feel even better tomorrow. 🥰♥️.
♥️
Feel better soon !
Thank you. I am working really hard on it. 😊
😘
I thought I had posted about my day but the page refreshed and I think it was lost before it posted, I shared that my brother did come today as he was feeling better. I broiled lamb chops and he had his plain, following his FOD map IBS diet. Me, my innards are strong as a truck so I smothered mine in mint jelly, garlic and rosemary. We also had creamed spinach. I considered making a simple kugel he likes but my back was starting to whine so I relaxed with him. We watched a good movie called The Devil’s… Read more »
You did post earlier, but some things are said now that we’re not said earlier. I never heard of a kugel so I googled. I know you aren’t Jewish! 12 inches of snow! Didn’t know you were snowed in.
Kugel is more aligned with northeastern countries where it was made historically and still is. Recipes varied. So a German kugel would be different from a Polish kugel. Yes, I am not Jewish by faith. However I am half Jewish by race from my mother’s line. I do enjoy some of their culture as it reminds me of my grandparents.
Interesting. Which country is your maternal lineage from?
Oh, that is a rabbit hole of a conversation…lol. Northern europe an countries have gone through so many changes. If you look at old maps and then modern ones you will see the changes. I’ll email you more info re: my family.
12″. We used to get that here also. But I don’t think I’ve seen it in about 10 or more years. I thought it was kind of neat, except for transportation problems. I bet you are ready for the melt. 🙂
I agree, snow is lovely unless you have to drive in it. So glad to be retired. I love the quiet of Winter and the beauty of it on sunny days. Not so much when it is gray skies and muddy brown slush!
Agreed! 🤗
I mean …who would like brown mushy mush! If I van’t have pretty white snow, then wake me up once Spring springs green!🙂
Safe travels for Debbie tomo 🙏 take your time with the shopping 💖
Thanks Pam. I hope I can get it done. The podiatrist office is good sized and a long walk from waiting room to his exam room. There are several practioners I think.
Is this a folow uo on using those braces?
I’m going because I have a little toenail angling up and I want to ask him about that diagnosis he never mentioned to me.
Good you will ask him. Jo driving you? Will you do anything else after appt.?
Jo isn’t going she has a dental appointment. My appointment is at 3 my time so I have to go to Walmart. Before the appointment and take a cooler.
Is it painful for you to drive with your feet? What’s with the cooler?
Not usually. Maybe at the end of the day. Sometimes then I hurt even if Jo is driving. Somerset is 30 minutes from home as far as perishables go, so sometimes we take a cooler anyway. But for the first time my appointment will be AFTER Walmart and groceries, so I HAVE to have a cooler if I buy anything perishable.
So I will say hello to everyone, since I haven’t had a chance to yet. I’ve been trying to catch everyone before anyone leaves the area for a few minutes to eat or go to bed or whatever. So now I will tell you what I did today. Nothing. I spent most of the day sleeping off and on and eating/drinking off and on, and now I’m sitting, and eating and drinking again. It’s just so exciting! I’m trying to catch up on the world news, but I can barely stand to watch it. So I’m watching animal videos. That’s… Read more »
Oh Sweet Pea, you sound even better than yesterday. Yippee! Glad you are taking it slow. Smart to stay away from the news.😁
Hi Lin, thank you. I am feeling quite a bit better than I did yesterday. But I’m still not able to get up and move around very well. So, it was easy and best to do nothing. 😊
Yes it is best. Don’t force it to go faster than it should. Listen to your body.
Yes, my body is having no problem telling me what to do. I find myself groaning frequently. 😊
😁
I meant groaning. I fixed it.
Awww. I wish it was growing instead of groaning!
Me too!
There you are I thought you might have gone back to bed.
Oh, so glad to see you, 🙂 Even though you aren’t doing anything, your body is very busy healing.🙂
Thanks Lin. Nice to be able to be present. I hope you are doing well. 🤗
Hi Karen ♥ i’m avoiding the news too; it’s too 💔
You’re doing the exact right thing for your recovery; sleep, drink, sleep, eat, & sleep some more {{HUGS}}
Hi Pam. 🤗 Thank you. Just a few more days maybe.
And 💔 is an understatement. I am almost in tears.
You are doing good Karen, exactly what you should be doing. And you are getting better I can tell. It is slow for you, so your probably don’t realize how much better you are. It is exciting for us just to have you talking.
Thank you Debbie. 😘 It is exciting for me to be able to talk to y’all again. A little bit longer each time. You know, once I get going, you won’t be able to shut me up.
Good.
I am so tired and sore I can hardly move so I am going to be going to bed very soon. We just finished eating cheeseburgers and potato wedges
Nite-nite. Sweet dreams. 🌸
Good night Karen. Get some rest
Thank you. No problem. 😊
Yum. I see no bun. Hope you can rest and your body doesn’t make it hard.
Congrats Pam
Go Broncos I saw some of the game.
Go Broncos!! 🥰
🤸♀️🤸♀️🤸♀️🤸♀️ Thanks Ardyth 💖
😘
Good late afternoon…..nothing new to report…..I hung out on the bed this afternoon for a couple hours, even fell asleep for a bit.
My lower back is hurting from lifting boxes on the top shelf of the closet….. Rick is grilling burgers and roasting potato wedges.
Hi Ardy, you should ask Rick to get the boxes down for you.
They were small and not too heavy
But you hurt your back.
Yes!
Glad you had such a great time last night Ardyth! 🙂 I’m sorry your back is hurting. I have the same problem when I lift from above. So nice you have a nice dinner coming. I bet you will sleep great tonight! 🤗
Hi Karen, Yep it is lifting from above.
I know I will be out as soon as i hit the pillow and hope I sleep for hours.
How are you feeling?
Hi Ardyth. I am feeling much better than I was a few days ago, thank you. That certainly looks like a beautiful setup for the concert. I can tell you had fun. Your outfit is really cute. I’m hoping you can fall asleep right away and sleep until you HAVE to get up. 😊 Thanks for posting the pictures.
I’m glad you’re feeling better Karen Marie. I posted on Facebook but I posted for it so you could see a little bit of the night. Yes I am very tired but what a treat. Raymond is on tonight instead of 2 and 1/2 Men which I used to love but I just can’t fall asleep to that all right? Good night you take care of yourself
Thank you, I will. I thought you might have posted those pictures for me, Ardyth, and I really appreciate it. I don’t use Facebook hardly at all. Go to sleep with Raymond, and I will talk to you tomorrow. Sweet dreams.
Pics from last night
Cool looking guy with the sunglasses on the last pic. 😁.
Were you stubborn trying to do that on your own? Miss Independent🙂 I’m quite bad about that.
