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…last night we got fish dinners at a restaurant..it was pretty good…i think next time I might want takeout (the place where you can get fish or shrimp or both) and eat at home..I do have leftovers and my mom can have some if she wants. We have a bit of running around to do sometime..also I’ll do litter boxes and a load of laundry. 30s today and not windy! yesterday was bad..and so cold when we went out. Hope y’all have a nice day!
Goodmorning Lynn, I wanted fish fry last night so bad, I would of had to walk away to get it and I didn’t feel like going out in the cold, I had left overs to eat😍 Have a great day, I’m sort of cleaning things😂
I kind of wanted to stay in, with the wind it was freezing out! But it was getting too late to order at the takeout places and it was good to get out.
Good morning Lynn, sounds like you have a full day planned.
I have a tentative plan but who knows what will actually be done, lol..
My days are like that often.
Good Morning Bellas😍 doing things in the right order this morning fed Jade got my coffee and stopping in here, its a cold gloomy 23 but no wind so that’s a plus😃 not sure what I’m up to today? haven’t thought that far ahead. Its National sticky buns day
looks yummy!
Oh yes it does, where I worked the baker would make sticky buns everyday and I ate my share😂 they were so good when they were warm😋 she didn’t put the iceing on them, they didn’t need it
Good morning Sunshine. Hope your Dad is better today.
New med, just have to see how he reacts to it? its for anxiety
Have a good one, dear ladies !😃😘.
Now i still did read some chat here, reading about julies dad.
JULIE , you CAN call the place where dad is and talk to a nurse or doctor. You should be involved in a way so that you know everything directly, you are the daughter !
Dont get me wrong please. I feel sorry for your dad, maybe you could travel there to see him ? All the best !😘
Byeeee for now.
just me but..maybe they won’t tell everyone since it’s private info? I don’t know who is allowed to be told and maybe it’s different where he is…her brother is up there now, I believe and that is who she goes up there with sometimes…she does visit quite often.
Thanks for explaining Lynn😘
Yes they can and will talk to her but her Mom and brother have it covered.
She should have power of attorney, too, for both parents, just to make sure to be involved right. To get direct info, not just what family tells her.
I know that she goes there with her brother and its not always lovely with him. But…. oh well, what can i say …🤔.
Morning Gabi, I know I can call, calling is not a problem, he had tests done at the hospital not where he’s staying that’s the nursing home they didn’t do the tests, My Mom talked to the hospital and they will call her to say what’s going on. My brother is there helping her with the medical stuff, when test results are done the hospital will call my Mom-I call where my Dad is at and talk to him
Hospital tests usually take 2 hours maximum. Normally a hospital has a lab.
Maybe think of power of attorney for both parents ? Just to be on the safe side now and in future ? …..i am just thinking what i would do.
You know best for yourself.
Happy weekend dear Gabi😍💙🌱
Thank you . Back to you.😘.
Good night to those I haven’t spoken to tonight. 💤 I hope you all have nice dreams and a pleasant morning. 🌸🌼 I am praying for you and your parents, Julie. 🙏 Hope to talk to you all sometime tomorrow. 🤗🦅❤️🦋🐕🐱🐒🦇
Time for me to say good night. Good night dear Karen and Pam. Stay warm and comfy, with sweet dreams and peaceful thoughts. Julie, hugs and prayers. We all love you. Gabi hope you are feeling better.
Good night Debbie, I’m screaming as I sign off as this is the third time. I hope you sleep good. Sweet dreams to you, honey 🦜🤗 and I’m looking forward to good results from your new medicine. 😘
Third time to type the message? I’m so sorry Karen. Remember about the edit. Love you.
Thanks. Yes, I remembered, but this was so short. Have to get shorter I guess. ❤️ Love you.
😘😍🥰thank you ,debbie.
I just saw your wellwishes . I didnt read anything else here , just wanted to post the happy weekend gif. Still feel kinda sick and headache, grrrr. Oh well… hugs.😘
….now i still did read some chat….
Feel better Gabi, kick its butt out of you👞
Will try, lol.
Maybe sinus? Get better ASAP!
Doesnt feel like sinus, oh well, its nothing serious i think.
Love you.😘.
Hi Gabi. Are you running a fever? I hope it is just a common cold.
Nope, no fever. Face feels cool. I will be ok sweetie, its just a cold.
I have not had a cold since 6 years, thats why it feels extra lousy. Not used to it any more, lol. All good.
Tv time now, i say nite nite.
🥰😍😘😴.
No fever no flu. That is good. Enjoy your tv time and take care of yourself. You are loved.
Thank you sweetie and you sleep well.😘
Oh no, www! I was hoping and thinking you would feel much better today. 😥 It must be a little bug. Hopefully not a big bug! Take care of yourself, make sure you get plenty of rest and liquids. Sorry if I sound like a mom . . . 😍😘🤗
Hi karen, oooops: MOM, lol.😍😘😍.
I do drink plenty of water, lemon water etc., to flush stuff out.
We have a quote here, it is : a cold WITH taking meds lasts 2 weeks, WITHOUT taking meds it lasts 14 days. I need to just wait it out, lol.
Maybe we can find a way to make windows like front doors. Some nice, thick couple of pieces of wood with insulation, made to fit securely in the window space, with an opening and closing window/screen on the other side 🤔.
😄 i like that idea!
Thanks, Pam. It would certainly be warmer/cooler than what we have now. And it would be safer also. I’ve actually been going through designs in my head for a while now.
If you can design it, maybe you can find someone to implement it 😘
Maybe. 😍
Did you do anything exciting today?
You mean you can’t see out? Not with the wood closed?
It would be just like a front door, with a screen/glass door. We could leave the door part closed all winter, and then in the spring, open it and slide the glass in the second door up or down, to allow the screen to bring the cool air in. Am I making sense?
I think so but I have to see out during the daytime all year long! I couldn’t be inside all day and not see out, I don’t care if it is 5 degrees outside! I actually have 3 layers of glass between me and the outside. The double pane windows are supposed to be filled with gas, but I don’t know about that!
You could just leave your wooden door open all day. And keep the glass up on the other door.
It will have to be of a certain design that still looks good in the middle of a room wall. I haven’t figured that part out yet. But I don’t think it would be too hard.
Correct. If you want to see out, you have to open that main door which would leave the glass and screen there.
Just like a front door
I can handle the door closed but not the windows. Wouldn’t work for me at all.
But it would look nice for people who don’t need to see out and economical on the heating bill.
That’s okay, you wouldn’t have to buy one. 😅 I know you were put on a new medicine during your appointment. Is there anything else new they are going to do right now?
Nothing else new. I think I’m doing good. Now we gotta get you all fixed up. I’m so glad you are getting hooked up with a rheumatoid doctor.
Karen I said good night above. Love you and a big ol’ hug!
But you can slide the window glass part up to show the screen and get the air. I’m probably not describing it correctly.
It isn’t getting air I’m thinking of, it is not seeing out. I’ve got to see out in the daytime year around.
You could see out and get air in,, if you just left the door part open. Just like the front door you have now, only this one would close differently. 😘
I have to see out, too..I keep blinds and curtains (don’t have any heavy ones)open all day .
I’m going to eat and lay down just feel like being cozy right now see you tomorrow😘
Good nite Julie. Hugs and love.
To you also Debbie Love you💖
Good night Julie. I’m so sorry I missed you again. I’m trying to get there a little earlier, but it just doesn’t work out for me lately. I hope you enjoy your evening. I know you have a lot on your mind. Try not to worry too much about your dad’s memory, it could be the meds he’s on. I know this is a rough time for you. I know your mom has a pet scan next week you’re probably worried about that too. I’m praying for you honey. 🙏😘🌹🦋❤️
So sweetly said.
Thank you Debbie, I know we all worry and care so much about her. 🌹
Your words are so good because they come from the heart, and your heart is good.
Thank you, Debbie. I feel the same way about you. 🌸
🥰
Did you eat supper yet Debbie?
Yep, some shrimp and roasted veggies. How about you? You need to eat before midnight!
I have been snacking around. A pear, a hamburger patty, a bowl of raisin bran cereal, some V-8 juice. And something else, but I can’t remember. I do that sometimes. I just don’t feel like fixing anything, so it works out better that way. What kind of shrimp did you have? Sounds delicious.
It was left over in a sauce. Not the best. I’m not to picky, just get it done. Your food sounds good. Did you put anything on the patty? That food actually sounds very healthy.
I am actually the same way, just get it done! 😅 I did put a little ketchup on the patty. It was tasty, just cold. I think it is kind of healthy, because I eat a little bit at a time instead of getting full. And they are mostly non-fat. I can go for like 2 hours or so, eating a little bit off and on. After a couple of hours or so, I am content, but not full.
That is a very healthy way to eat.
I think it is too, but I can’t do it all the time. Sometimes I just want a big meal. 🤣 Sometimes I feel like I have to force it down. Se la vie, I guess. Do you have plans for tomorrow?
No plans for tomorrow. Two docs next week, back to back days.
Good night Julie…get cozy! I am going to as soon as i eat
Hi, Ardyth. Are you feeling better today and this evening? Sounds like your body might have been missing some protein or something. Or, maybe you were just overly tired. Anyway. I hope you are not so tired now. 😘
