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.

Hello…went to church today, then coffee at McD’s and a snack wrap…also DH and I went to his dad’s, I’d forgotten my sweater there so we chatted with the caregiver, played with the cat, etc..his dad was quiet and watching tv. I put away some Christmas decorations, left out some wintery ones…hope Dh takes the tree down soon, since it doesn’t have ornaments on it now. I have a short petsitting job coming up, just a couple days. It will be fun. I think I’ll have the soup that’s in the freezer for dinner, while DH is at his rentals.

Hi Lynn, another full day for you. I’m glad, at least it sounds like it, that FIL was having a good day. I had soup for lunch. I wish someone had a little grilled chicken wrap. I think Wendy’s used to have one but quit.

Good afternoon! Today is Bring Your Own Bucket to Cinemark theaters and pay $5 for popcorn. So of course I did it. I’m doing laundry and now I’m on the bed I need to write a little letter to go with a birthday card. I am feeling better My cough isn’t as bad and my congestion isn’t as bad but it’s not gone yet. Oh I meant to tell you that I saw pictures of DS on Facebook in Tucson.

Hi Ardy. Good score on the popcorn. I’m glad you are feeling better. You probably are not very contagious now unless you don’t cover a cough.

Cute pic of you. Looks like you had little yellow popcorn-ears on both sides of your head. 🥰

I am so glad you don’t have covid, Ardyth. I you are out and about a lot more than me, and I worry about you coming in contact with it. Do you wear a mask when you go out? I wear one all the time.

Oh she is beautiful, Debbie. Great photo! And she is adorable. She looks so petite, too. And I know she’s a hummingbird, but still . . . 😊 The way she holds those tail feathers, like she’s showing them off. 🥰
