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.

Rick dropped our taxes off at Dan’s, my sister’s brother-in-law who does our taxes and then he went to the nursery on the far east side of town and bought $70 worth of chili peppers and tomato plants. So he’s ready to plant

Cost a lot for the little plants. What else grows in the southern Arizona climate? I know carrots.

Carrots are winter along with radishes and winter lettuce.
He only wants tomatoes and peppers
He doesnt like vines like zucchini and we dont care for zucchini.
You could Google if you really want to know…lol

In Southwest Arizona (Tucson/Sonoran Desert), you can grow vegetables year-round by matching crops to the season. Spring (Feb-Apr) is ideal for tomatoes, peppers, and beans. Summer (May-July) requires heat-tolerant crops like okra, eggplant, sweet potatoes, and melons. Fall/Winter (Sept-Jan) thrives with broccoli, lettuce, and root vegetables

Gabi that is a great movie! It was the last movie I have seen in a movie theatre! A young, handsome Kevin Costner so you will especially love it. We saw the area where the snow scene was filmed in South Dakota when we traveled there.we saw props and one of the horses that was in the movie. The movie shows a bad part of American history.

Yes, stupid, greedy white men coming mostly from europe.🤔😕. Killing the buffalos and oppressing the first nations. My relatives from my mom side emigrated to kansas , too, still with ox – drawn prairie schooners. 1877. They also had controversies with first nation people there in kansas. That movie made me almost cry sometimes. When “kicking bird ” said to costner: we came a long way – we both. When the wolf took food out of costners hand and when his wolf was shot by those stupid guys. And the dead buffalos and the one calf by his dead skinned… Read more »

Gabi you have a lot of close ties to the US. Relatives back until 1877, parents almost immigrated! You could have been an American! But I am glad you are German. How many times have you traveled to America? I remember all the things you mentioned about the movie. It was a great movie, has fun, beauty, sadness, tragedy, makes you think about a lot of things. It is late evening for you now, hope your day has gone well.

Hi Gabi,I posted the same gift this morning😘“Dances with Wolves” this made me laugh, because Kevin C always shows his butt in the movies he’s in, so with room mates of mine we rented this movie and before it we talked about if he would show his butt and when he did we all laughed so hard, your post gave me this memory again😂

Good morning everyone! 😍 I woke up early this morning, feeling the need to hunt down a couple of eagles. I found one, but not the other. So, I’ve been on the internet for about 2 hours now and I’m going to take a little break any eat something. Julie, I am praying for you and your family. I wrote you a longer note down below. It’s already been kind of covered up. 😘 Debbie, I see you just got back. Lynn, sounds like you have a good day planned, I’ll be back soon I hope. Talk to y’all then.… Read more »
