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 Bella Buds. We are sunny and 43. It is a heat wave! We may break 60 today. I’m needing a grocery store so I think I’ll venture to Walmart some day this week. I’m continuing to go thru things, trying to get rid of stuff as much as I can. I opened up a drawer in my chest of drawers yesterday. There was this bag of stuff related to high school graduation. Tassel, honor society banner, not sure what else. I think I got rid of the gown years ago. I haven’t seen this bag for decades. So… Read more »
WooHOO Debbie heat wave. Holy cow on that bag of stuff nice to find it, i’m not sure where my stuff is😂 it might be with stuff up north from when my parents moved up there years ago? have a fun day going through your memories😍
Hi Debbie…I keep things like that, very sentimental but that’s up to you. Have fun at Walmart whichever day you go.
It really is hard to get rid of things, but seems best.
After a while its time😘 its hard to let go
you can but you don’t have to, I’m fine donating some things and I do keep a lot also.
I try to down size but there’s some things I can’t part with💖I hang onto things for the memories, but I try to rationalize that they are memories and those you always have😃
😘
I believe so too…..I never look at the things I have saved.
Debbie, I have been doing that for years, trying to get rid of stuff. I eventually end up just moving it from one place to another. I have bags and boxes everywhere LOL. My stuff, my brothers and sister’s stuff, my Mom’s stuff, my daughter’s stuff. 1,800 sq ft of stuff!!!! It’s a museum! You had a great idea of taking pictures. I think I will ponder that and maybe do that myself. 😘
Taking the pictures is helping. I just came across a formal looking certificate in memory of my father and thanking him for his army service. What do you do with such? Finally I took a photo and tore up the real thing.
I kept some of mom’s paperwork too, why I dont know.
I got rid of my wedding dress, lots of pictures in it every anniversary.
I imagine the dress was hard, but what do you do with that stuff? You got lots of photos. I think the photos do a better job than actually looking at the dress. The dress is a dress. The photos were of you experiencing the moment, how you felt, who was there.
Good morning. Just a quick hello to let everyone I won’t be on SPO much. Know all is good on this end. No need to worry. Just working on some projects, trying to get things done before Spring. Sending good wishes to all!
Thanks for letting us know….it does take up a lot of time/
Good morning Lin, its good to have projects, I have a few ideas for some-hope you get outside and enjoy our beautiful weather😍 so good seeing your post😘🌷
😢. Good morning Lin. I sure miss you when you are not around, but I truly do understand. You get your things done before spring, at which time you will have new projects in your yard, raising beautiful and tasty things. So I suspect we won’t be seeing much of you for a good while. As Gabi told me many times, “Debbie, we have REAL lives.” And of course she is right. Know that you are appreciated and loved for the person you are.
I understand…and go back and forth..so just short breaks when I need to get things done. we do have lives but to me, this is real too, real people, real friendships.
You said it the way I feel it Lynn. My relationships with everyone here is very real. When I have been in the hospital, through surgeries and other things, my first thoughts when it became possible was to let my friends here know I was ok. When I sold the RV, one of my first thoughts was I want to explain what took place that day and what it meant. But I also try to remind myself that because that is me, it isn’t every one. So I try to emotionally withdraw a bit, which I’m sorry to say doesn’t… Read more »
yes, we really do get to know people and become friends…some of us email, text, call, even meet in person! so that is very very real.
Yes, I’ve done all those things. Did you know I actually talked to Gabi on the phone one time! Now that was thrilling.
yes 😍
Lin, I bet you are very busy, writing, etc. I’m sure it will be a busy Spring, especially after talking with your landscaper. Please send some pictures of your beautiful flowers and other greenery occasionally, as you can. Enjoy! 💕
Good Morning Bellas, we are up or a warm spell in the 40’smaybe one day around 50 so see how it goes this week😃 saw just the half time of the game really enjoyed it bueno Benito!! have a good day! think because of people having to work today, thinking the Super Boel could be held on Saturday, giving Sunday a day for recovering after the super bowl. I watched a very funny All Creatures, instead of the game😍 Glad the Sea Hawks won😘
Just noticed I hit the e instead of w for bowl😂 half time show was really fun to see Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin perform
Good morning Sunshine and Jade. Enjoy the nice day.
I will after another cup of coffee😜
I used to read in the bathtub! mostly when I was in my teens, 20s I think.
Me too, I read everywhere. Bathtub, kitchen table, in the car. 😅
Time for bed. Another Super Bowl, now I can get back to the Olympics. I will miss football now but there is still basketball. Good night to all my friends, have a restful, peaceful night. Love to all.
Goodnight Debbie. 😘 Good bye Football for a while. Will get ready for baseball. Not a basketball fan. Their squeaky shoes on the floor always bothered me when I was a little girl. You sleep good, sweet Debbie, and have wonderful dreams. See you tomorrow. 🌸❤️
♥️🥰♥️
I agree Karen Marie the shoes squeaking does get to you after awhile, some games more squeaky than others😂 I have noticed
I didnt watch the superbowl, but since you mentioned your fav commercial, the rocket mortgage, i watched this ad and a few other videos of the superbowl on youtube. In your fav ad i liked the homecoming troopers the most. Nice commercial. I also liked a lot when this guy charlie puth was singing your national anthem. Didnt know him before. Good voice. Oh yes, and i liked the fly – over. 🛩👍. To me this bad “fabbit” bunny guy wasnt doing his show / singing so great. I never heard of him before . But i think he was… Read more »
Good Morning Gabi, Bad Bunny is Puerto Rican, and Puerto Rico is part of the US and he is a US citizen. His show was a statement, He brought Puerto Rico to America-what he did is in many of his videos😍
I knew this about puerto rico, but didnt know that the bunny is from there. I didnt know this guy at all. Not popular here. Oh well… .
Did you know that my DD is us-citizen, too ? My first hubby -her dad- is american, but he still lives in germany. DD of course is also german.
Have a nice day.🙂
I listen to his videos on Youtube, I really like his music-he is the #1 performer in the world. DD😍 how is your girl doing?
I guess he isnt popular here. 🐇🐰😉.
DD is doing good. Working a lot. She is a nurse.
I heard that too, that he’s pretty popular everywhere.
Hi Gabi, I’m going to watch some of the non-ball game on YouTube later today, some of the commercials, the singing other than Bad Fabbit. I heard him enough last night.
i imagine you are finished with your cleaning, probably in to cooking supper. Hope you didn’t work to hard and now have pain! Enjoy your evening and 🥰♥️
I am finished with cleaning, and no, i didnt work too hard. I still have to finish some laundry which is still in the washer for another half hour. Debbie, i think i slowly will get a foot problem, too. Like a hallux valgus deformity on 1 foot. I already try to massage my toe and foot and i have a toe spacer for in between toe number 1 and 2, but this hallux knob hurts a bit sometimes. Oh well, will have to see if it gets better again. 😳🥴. You enjoy your day and be well.😘😴 good night… Read more »
Gabi my best advice to you is see a competent podiatrist NOW. The longer you wait, the harder it will be to correct. The older you get, the harder to tolerate the correction. I don’t know your country, but I think here there is a big difference in podiatrist. I went to the one my family doctor recommended. He has more credentials, more letters after his name than most. He doesn’t do some of the things other podiatrists do because he is more specialist. Last visit he told me he wanted me to see another doctor. He said to me,… Read more »
You are right. I just fear maybe more surgery. I already looked up 2 specialists in my area. They do a lot of hallux surgery. I still hope it can be helped without another surgery. Oh pita.
Now nite nite , love you my friend. 🥰.
Good night Gabi, couch time for you.
I made an appointment hallux -wise.😩.
Good day !
That is really good Gabi. Putting it off serves no purpose. It won’t just go away. So it is wise to see the doctor now. I was like you. Surgeries, long hospital stay. Rehab. So the last things I wanted was to see 2 NEW specialists. Rheumatoid and podiatry. But the problems didn’t go away and it had to be. Good luck, hope no surgery is needed.
I wanted to put it off at first, but after reading what you had said : …the harder to tolerate the correction…, i figured that you were right.
Plus- you are no “newbie” with feet. Thanks for telling me.
And yes, i hope it will be without surgery.
Good night debbie.
It can take more surgery that makes it harder also because the structure of the bones become more deformed. Good luck Gabi maybe you will just need the spacer.
🧡We will see…..
This was fun! 😘
I’m off to watch Bookish on PBS, goodnight, see ya tomo 😴
Good night Pam, yes fun. Reminds me of watching Loyola U and Sister Jean all of us together.
Very much fun, Pam. I’m watching the Bud Freebird commercial a few more times. Just so majestic and glorious! 💗 Sleep good. Goodnight. 😘
I what Bookish too Pam😍
watch, some letters do not show up with the typing-its delaid-so many spelling problems
I did like the Kurt Russell commercial. It was the first or second one. I didn’t get to pay too much attention, because it was so exciting just to see super bowl coming on. But I liked what I saw. My fav commercial was . . . Can you guess? Lincoln and the Clydesdale. I thought Budweiser was going to have two commercials, but I didn’t see the other one.
i saw the Bud Light ad, it was okay. And like you, i liked the Kurt Russell too
Thanks. I will look up the other ad. 🤗
My favorite is still the Rocket Mortgage.
I missed that one. Just played it. It is excellent! A close second to my #1. 😘
I would have like the eagle/clydesdale one better if they had made the AI part of it a little better. I didn’t think the small eaglet was very realistic. So it is my second like. We agree on the top two, just different order. I could just feel that little girl’s feelings.
Oh, me too with the little girl. Didn’t the dog do something too?
He just got lost in the storm.
I saw another one that was Bud Light.
I saw that one too just a little bit ago. I really didn’t care for it. And I like Peyton Manning a lot.
Game about over …going to bed to watch Raymond
Good night
Aw, Ardyth, don’t you want to see the end of the game? 🤣😂 Raymond would be more interesting. 😅😍
I am going to finish the game…rooting for the seahawks tho
Ok. Enjoy! 😍 Sleep good. Sweet dreams.
Goodnight Karen…..
Nite-nite. 🤗
G’night Ardyth 😴 glad Rick’s okay after his mishap — Hugs to him
