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 afternoon! Just checked the news. It seems the keystone guys have figured out that the guy might have been wearing a pinky ring. Could have been helpful three weeks ago. 🙁😞 I’m so unhappy about the the way this case has been handled. Anyway, I wanted to touch base before it got too much later. I have been catching up on some stuff. I have been doing some laundry and ironing. So much fun. Julie, I’m sad to hear that your dad is back in the hospital. I hope they can repair the problem quickly. It will be nice… Read more »

Hi Karen. What is an iron? Seems like I remember it, a relic from my long ago past.

Ha ha! Hi Debbie. 😉 Actually, the iron I had stowed away in the basement ended up with a nitch in its cord, from a tiny mousketeer. I had to set traps. This was about 2 months ago. Dutchess never gets to go down there, so she can’t work her magic. I had to iron a couple of stiff collars, there was no other way I could wear the blouses. So I bought a new iron a couple of weeks ago.

I don’t buy or wear anything that requires ironing! I’m low maintenance. No wonder I look like crap.

😂🤣 Very funny, Debbie. But I’m sure you find clothes that are made of the correct material for no ironing. Most of my blouses have a rigid type collar. And same with the placket, if it’s not ironed, it’s all puffy.

Like I said, I don’t buy it! Long time ago I used to iron a crease in my pants but somewhere down the line I stopped that. I think it was more like the material changed,

Yes, they started making clothing from fabrics that are easier to maintain.

Yes. Pollsters in the 60’s, some 70’s looked like crap. Like a face with enlarged pores! And sorta stiff. They improved. Today a lot of polyesters look like they have a lot more soft cotton in them than they do.

Stupid auto correct. Polyesters in the 60s. Of course might have been stupid Debbie.

I remember my boyfriend coming to pick me up in a polyester leisure suit in the early ’70s. I laughed so hard! 😂😅🤔

😂 And I’m sure they thought it made them look so hot! More like a fop. And they even tried to dance in them. I’m so glad they didn’t last long. The clothes. 😉

Me too. That was the polyester that looked like big pores.

Yes. It made me freak out every time I saw it. Of course, I was wearing my hip-hugger bell bottoms at the time, so I was probably getting laughed at, too. 🤨

Oh I know, I think the collar and placket can change the entire shape of the blouse, if not ironed.

😅 I’ll let you know what I find out. I never buy a drink when I go to fast food places any more. I have canned beverages at home, in the refrigerator. This shake will probably be nice with a burger and fries.

I’ve mostly been watching at night…one time I went to Decorah and oops! someone told about Ilia and I’m like OH NO!! I wasn’t happy and that’s one reason to watch during the day instead..we had a couple nice days though and I didn’t want to be watching tv..also sometimes at night we go out, not often though..maybe once a week, sometimes we don’t. I was saying I”m glad I watched it today, I really wouldn’t have wanted to know before i watched her.

I still watch if I know or not, I still want to see the performance, I watch the news and they say what’s going on all the time so I’m used to it.I like to talk about it in real time like when it happens, because its exciting at that momment😃

It’s a OK neighborhood that’s why I’m shocked by this, its close to the high school maybe it had something to do with it?
