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.

All right, Julie. 🌹I just got my ducks in a huddle and I’m starting to cook some supper. I hope you have a lovely night. 😘 Enjoy them leftovers! I won’t be up too long, I didn’t get much sleep last night, so . . . 😂 I’ll talk to you tomorrow. May you dream about hummingbirds, butterflies and eagles tonight. Love you. 💕 Nite-nite. 🐦🦋🦅

Yes, and I needed it. Sometimes I just wear myself out and have to take a nap. No matter what time it is. And sometimes I wear myself out because I can’t sleep. Vicious cycle. 🫣

It’s not really the cycle I like or want. I would rather be able to get up at 6:00 in the morning and go to bed at 10:00 at night every day. But that doesn’t work for me anymore for some reason.

That’s a pretty good schedule, actually. I could live with that one too. I just have to get on a schedule of some sort. I have to be more determined. It’s so different than when I worked, my schedule was set for me then. Now I have to do it by myself. It’s not fair!!!! 🤣😂

That is frustrating. If I have a large post I first type it out in a word document and then copy and paste. If you lose it you still have the document and you can go and copy again and post. If you don’t have word you can use whatever program your device has. This always works for me.

I understand. Besides, no one else is here really, so you would just have to repeat yourself tomorrow anyway. I am going to check a few nests (most of the ones I follow are active now), and then probably go to bed. I need to get some better sleep tonight.

I keep it all in my head. I would probably be better off to write it down. But when I first learned about watching eagles, it all happened so fast, and I had so little knowledge, that I didn’t know how to keep track of it. I will probably learn how to do that.

I got steak and baked sweet potato. I’ll probably eat the rest in a little bit. The steak wasn’t any better than the sirloin at Texas Roadhouse. I had to spit some out. Guess I need to go with the t-bone, rib eye or filet. I used to be able to get good sirloins. Not as good as the others I mentioned mainly because less fat content, but still good flavor and not spitting any out. Service was good but the chairs were hard. Next time I’ll wait on a booth, they are padded.

I got y haircut this morning and had $10 off so the cut was only $12 instead of $22. I ran into a buy and his wife whose hair I used to cut. They were surprised to see me. I went on Etsy to order color street nails because the people that sell them discount them. This person sold them for $9 a set (normally $14/$15) but charged $5.95 for shipping so I actually didnt save any money so I wont be ordering again. I know for a fact she could of put them in a manilla envelope and put… Read more »

Hi Ardyth love the color and that is crazy packaging, If she was afraid they were going to break she could use a envelope with bubble wrap in it? I guess she’s just being carefull. Great deal on your hair cut😘

 I once stuffed a Laz-y Boy chair into the backseat of my Buick LaCrosse, driving from Phoenix, AZ to Montrose, CO to give to DB/Chuck. Like most things, it was much easier to get it in the car than to get it out; turned out to be quite the adventure ↓↓
