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 morning…DH goes to his seminar late morning…I’m glad it’s a bit warmer because I’ll be taking the dogs out more than usual. He got home kind of late from his rentals but the electrical project is done. Think I’ll make some decaf tea now.

Good morning Lynn I had a lot of those “seminar” kinda things. On the one hand it was a break from the kids and every day routine, usually a simply meal like Subway. But on the other hand, VERY BORING. I did a lot of doodling.

Good morning Sunshine. I can smell the soup cooking. I love soup! Yum on the coffee. I got Carmel flavored right now, I started with dark roast. You sure you didn’t add a little rum? You know, just a little for your rheumatism?

Good morning! Jesse from the appliance center came out only to find out the overflow on our washer was backing up so that is why the machine was running on the floor. Not good news.He is the nicest kid, he came out the last time and he said he would write up the report so we would not have to pay the $99 charge. Butthe bad news is we need a plumber to snake it….which we did three years ago when we bought it. Our toilet off our bedroom has been leaking at time for a year now so we… Read more »

Hi Ardy…wish my DH could help you, he only charges family and I’m sure friends also, for parts..of course my mom always gave him a bit more because she appreciated it so much but still way less than if she’d had to hire a plumber. I’ve been keeping up with that also, it’s just so strange and upsetting…

Yes it is a very strange story and now a ransom note

Good morning Ardyth, I was thinking it might be a blockage, good hing its not the washer, I don’t like when someone has to come and fix something, I always have to be the one wo’s home and then has to clean up when gone just a pita😫 I have been following the Nancy story, I did hear of a ransom note but was waiting to hear news from a new press release on the story see what the police have to say, until then its all speculationI guess🤔 have a good day sweetie😘

You were right. I never thought it would be blockage because we had that done 3 years ago….now i know what to look for.

It would be great if you could get some kind of lint trap put in and just empty that like you do for a dryer, had that happen, with the washer and they put in a bigger pipe-the pipe we had here was to narrow, Hasn’t happened in years

Hopefully they will snake with a camera and determine to cause. Then you will know how to prevent.

`Good morning Ardy, so it is a sewer problem? I suspected such. Oh no, don’t tell me the Guthrie thing might have family involved. Horrible! I sure hope it is only a rumor.

I nearly died laughing at the dog show. This lady was showing this really large, fluffy dog which made him look even bigger. He reared up on the lady who was not a small woman, put his paws around her like he was hugging her, and the dog’s head was higher than hers! Liked to knocked her down but she was laughing. She got him down, gave that palm open command in front of his face and continued on.

Hi Karen I do understand. I am very much bothered. And what is going on with that sweet Guthrie woman is really adding to my feelings. But some how you have to step back from your feelings and try to go on living your everyday life. You are a passionate, caring person, I understand the difficulty.
