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.
CONGRATULATIONS TO THE MEN’S U.S. HOCKEY TEAM 🏅🤸♀️🤸♀️🤸♀️
A biggie Pam!
It’s great seeing them get their medals😍
I don’t watch hockey (or really any sport), but my friend will be happy to know that she’s a big hockey fan, her son used to play when he was young
Hi Deb! Been a hockey fan for over 50 years. I was even part of the booster club when Denver still pre-NHL; they were called the Denver Spurs.
my sister’s foster son played..they had to take him to practices and games, maybe half hour, 40 minutes away, he loved it
Good Morning Deborah😍
hi Julie
Going to OT!
Just got back to see the end, how exciting😍
this is how much of a sports fan I am, I thought you meant occupational therapy when you posted it so waited for others to comment on it before I said anything 😄
Good morning Deb! 🤣😁😂
You’re so funny Deb 😄
if you had said going into ot I might have put it together, but you said going to ot
🌱😯
I have only heard them singing, they eat dried berries and crab apples up here when there’s no insects, but I have only heard them the last 2 weeks. So interesting thanks for posting this. I only see them eating berries or crab apples in the fall though and they don’t come to feeders I have never seen one in the winter ever
I haven’t heard them yet but have seen a couple..they probably go into our woods here.
Lynn there still isn’t good for them to last the winter? cool you got to see a couple😍 I love their night song🎶
don’t know…there are berries they can eat ..we even have berries on the vines that are on our house, birds eat them in the winter
Theres nothing like that in my neighborhood-there are grapes but all those got eaten in the fall, when the insects die out or hirbrinate for the winter
at least you leave some leaf litter like under bushes and I’m sure there is some here and there. and I do, too..I tell my helper to leave some under bushes, on the garden, etc
Chickadees, nut hatches wood peckers, can get spiders over wintering in tree bark, but robins are ground feeders, I do leave brush standing and leaves for the insects. I don’t clean up till its really warmed up
I don’t either, maybe in April depending on how warm it is then
Good morning Ardy. Thanks for that info. I didn’t know, and I am glad to know. Now I wonder why I’ve lived this long and didn’t know!
Google says this about them, some might still follow the food to warmer areas
Very interesting, thanks.
Well with global warming all of nature is out of wack, I do know from the past when my Aunt Nancy lived in Florida, that she remembered seeing Robins come for their winter stay-she loved it because it reminded her of home and northern wisconsin😍
who knew? 😀
Jade just bit me, I’m bleeding, the stinker butt. Gosh darn it🙄
😫
Ooh, make sure you clean that up very well; you know how cats can be {{HUGS}}
Hi Julie!
I did make sure to clean it, I did the dishes too, hot soapy water works well for killing germs
someone I petsit for, her cat used to do that…she worked with him for awhile to get him to stop and it did…she would watch for the signs that he was even thinking about it, like when he’d had enough petting, overstimulated…and if he did even start or try to it was immediate walk away and ignore…can’t remember if she ever used a squirt bottle but just brief petting or whatever and then the ignoring, walking away, worked for the most part
Good morning Lynn.
She just jumped up and bit, she hasn’t done it in a while it was out of the blue no warning for the last bite, I do play with her so she has excersize,stimulation quality of life that’s good for her energy so she’s not board
😘
Good morning Julie. That isn’t good to het bit by her, lots of bacteria in her mouth. Good you wash it so good.
She’s been kind of bitey lately, she’s not getting her way and acts out-like she wants to go out side when its night time, and I don’t want to go out in the dark and cold or in the morning when I just get up-thats why she was mad this morning😼
You are going to have to be the mama. Squirt her then ignore her
Happy Sunday BellaFam 💖
10 degrees/feels like 3 … brrrr
I cannot believe i’m up at 6a watching a stupid hockey game in Italy 🙄 i definitely see a nap in my not too distant future 😴 👀
The Olympics are crazy; the U.S goalie actually plays for the Winnipeg Jets; while several of the players on the Canadian team play for my own Colorado Avalanche. 🏒
I was surprised to see you!!!!!
morning pam
Hi Ardyth; i’m surprised too! My eyes are watering, they want to be sleeping. yet here they are glued to the TV 🙄
Good morning Pam I’m up doing the same thing, but its a big game😍 Coffee clinks😘
Good morning Pam. Of course you watched the hockey game! You are retired! It was the gold medal game! For the Olympics that only occur every 4 years. I’ve know you to stay up most of the night because you got immersed in a book! Funny to read how the players cross play in the 2 countries.
Hi Debbie!
Pam it is a delight to see you here!
Good morning Bellas up and moving sort of I have coffee Mens Hockey on USA vs Canada its for a gold medal. Yikes just checked the temp it looks cold out there its 16. Have a blessed Sunday😍🌻
