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.

That’s okay Ardyth. I totally understand. Just me on the pity pot, pretty much. I’m sure you know how that can be sometimes when you’ve just had enough of it. 😊 I am feeling much better, thank you.

Hello
Ardy, i just looked at your food pic. Looks so good ! I made a salat a short while ago and had black beans, too, to put in the salad . Oh boy, they made my homemade olive oil dressing grayish and salad looked weird, but tasted good anyway. I never had black beans before. Always the white ones, kidney beans or black -eyed peas.

You and all you girls may have a good day. I have cleaning day today.

poof….

Pills, lol.

Oh my goodness, www! I became exhausted just looking at that cartoon you sent. 😉That looks just about right. 😂 Either you are capable of working at the speed of light, or you have found a machine that I really want!! 🥰 I have only had black beans in enchiladas, and I couldn’t really taste them. I love all the other beans though, pintos, butter beans, Black eyed peas, white beans, and the list goes on! 🤗

They don’t look like they would. I guess they just add a certain amount of substance.

Hi Gabi
We eat all kinds of beans but black beans are good for lowering triglycerides.

Most beans lower triglycerides, they are all good and yummy, can enjoy more than just black😋

I did not know that beans lowered triglycerides. It just seemed that since they are a carbohydrate, that they wouldn’t do anything. Live and learn.

Thank you dear Debbie. 😘 I fixed tuna sammies and applesauce. And I had to cook some hash browns real quick just for the calories. 🤣 Not really, I just felt like it. They are so tasty sometimes. I can feel the love, thank you so much! I love y’all also. ❤️❤️
