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.
Bane is the bestest b-day boy and deserves special treats; i know he loves his pup-cups 🍨
😍
Is this Olive who is there now?
I’m not sure. Maybe she molted out her white head feather.
I never did notice the white feather in the beginning.
well, this is not good…our town has been fighting this..the final vote is in, looks like we are losing our OB and ICU 😡 and might be losing more than that, too, less beds and more 😡 I’m so stinkin mad about this and most of the people in town are also
Oh no, i’m so sorry Lynn 😢 it really does vacuum
yes it does 🙁
I know you’ve been talking about this there’s and that is too bad that it’s going to happen. How far are you gonna have to go now to a hospital?
depends where you go…half hour, 40 minutes…but this is the biggest town around and we really need it
Why are you loosing it? Seems they could make it profitable. They are probably saying it is because of expensive lawsuits.
no…it became a Catholic hospital, they are buying them all and changing things…it’s gone downhill ..it’s like a monopoly, guess you’d call it
I imagine the Catholics are not happy. They are prone to large families.
maybe, don’t know…and there are a lot of Catholic people around here, wonder what they think about it…there were even Drs. speaking at the meetings against this, writing letters, really fighting it..it’s just not good..we will most likely lose other services as well.
That is really sad. Where are the laws for such things that provide vital human needs.
😢 😡
Maybe the obstetricians will band together and make their own birthing center. They have a reason to want to do it. If they do it, it could be better than the hospital for that particular area of medicine.
I don’t see that happening…they’ll just go elsewhere, some already have…I really hate to lose the ICU and also have way less beds, which is most likely what will happen next from what I’ve heard…
I’m sorry.
Too far for an emergency.
I’m sorry Lynn. We have never had those things but my town is way smaller than yours. I think your town is at least as big as Somerset, and it has ICU for sure. I was in it 3 weeks.
So sad, Lynn. It’s just not right. I don’t know what is going to happen to all of us. I am starting to get really worried.
On a much better and happier note, I do want to wish Bane a Very Happy Birthday! 🎉 🥩 🎂 (I think today is the day.) 🤔
thanks, Karen 😍
Today is Charles’, aka DB/Chuck, 67th birthday 🎂 It’s also Uncle Jerry and my late SO/Stan’s b-days. November was pretty crazy. He’s cooking his own dinner, i offered and he said he’d do it. i’m okay with that. Sea Scallops/Shrimp cooked butter/lemon with pasta 😋
@Ardyth ~ Tucson, you’re an attractive/charming woman 😊 of course he wants to be friends
Happy Birthday to Chuck ♫♫♥♥
What does SO stand for?
Yum on Chucks birthday dinner!!!!! Are the scallops and shrimp in the pasta, all mixed together I guess?
It’s OK to be friends but going for coffee and a bagel isnt good when married in this case.
so looks like a yummy birthday dinner tonight! and hopefully cake too? or some kind of dessert?
yes what is SO? I get it about that guy, Ardy…just seems a bit weird or maybe needy…could be really lonely, have mental issues, who knows..
Could be harmless but it is a bit weird since he knows I am married.
I imagine the exchange of phone numbers left a different impression than you meant it.
Maybe but when i asked for his number I said it was incase of something important like when i broke my wrist and I wasnt around…… Now I avoid walking down there……sigh
SO=significant other
Dessert is Reese’s peanut butter ice cream cake; it’s his favorite candy bar
Happy #67 Birthday to Charles! 🎂 He is having quite a day, his favorite candy bar cake and a special meal! And he offers to cook his own birthday meal — what a guy! 🥰
Yum!!!
oh, ice cream, perfect!
I agree and wouldn’t go either.
SO = significant other
Thanks, not going to go…….
Oh SO…THANKS!
Was Stan the one you were actually married to for a couple years, or a different SO?
Stan was in Phoenix, we weren’t married; Char said we lasted 10 years because we never lived together.😄
So you had at least 2 long term relationships.
Yes, i was lucky
Happy birthday Chuck! Yum on that meal. Y’all will all enjoy that.
Howdy-do BellaFam 💖
Don’t know how this happened, but ads are back on my SPO sites; i’m livid 😡 Why isn’t my ADBLOCK working? UGH.
Lots of people having Ads and a white strip over at Decorah…
i’ve had the white strip for several weeks, and was able to finally get rid of it. it was infuriating.
😖
I was getting ads again a week or so ago, I ended up getting rid of my old ad blockers and installed new ones, so far so good
Thanks Deb; i’m thinkin’ that’s what i’ll have to do too 😟
My ad blocker isn’t working either. Maybe they figured out a way to block the blocker.
probably 😠
Back later need to do some things🖐
Good morning! I don’t know how these things happened to me. But many months ago when I was down at the other end of the street taking pictures of the wash to report it so they would come out and clean it up. I met Moses who lives across from the wash. Very nice man and so we chatted and when I walked and he would drive by me he would stop and we would chat. Well I haven’t seen him for quite some time because I’m walking later and I don’t usually go down to that end of the… Read more »
yes I get it..and it’s not like you are really friends, I take it…I would go out with a friend for coffee, I have a college friend who I rarely see and I’d go with him. He’s my sister’s friend too, and I know she would, they call and text each other. when you said “I’m like what he knows” do you mean he doesn’t know or have other people in his life? just wondered…some people just don’t, sadly
I think i corrected that because I was talking into the phone. Yes once a year I go to breakfast with an older guy that was my customer since the 80’s and Rick does not care.
While I was in CA he met a girl for lunch that he worked with at the casino and I didnt care.
Those were old, established relationships and you both felt comfortable. You had connections.
Right !!!! And he lives with his boyfriend.
Theres no harm in having coffee with someone, its coffee not a date and he knows your married and asked sounds like freindship to me? how did he get your number to text you?
I wondered about the number. It is readily available online if you know a person’s full name.
I asked him for his number after I broke my wrist just for something like that….to let him know why I wasnt walking.
Then one day he asked me why I never text him??? Why would I???
Now that is a red flag.
I felt weird when he asked me that because I didnt know how to answer him. I only asked for his number for an emergency and I told him that when I asked for it.
I asked for his number once ……I wont be meeting him for coffee because I dont think Rick would like that .]Like Lynn said we arent really friends, just acquaintances
At this point i see no need to answer him…..unless he texts and asks me and i will explain nicely that I dont think its right…I dont know how he really feels about me.😃
Good you will talk to him and not ghost him, he might just want a friend-some one to talk to?
It might be a date to him🤔
He is probably just lonely but I guess you never know for sure. I’d text him back and just say your husband might not be comfortable with that, but if we run into each other again when I walk we can have a little chat. Then avoid that scenario if it makes you uncomfortable by just don’t walk down there too often, just occasionally when you really want to see the wash.
I see no need to answer that…..maybe he will get the message. I havent been walking down to his end of the street….his son is moving back in that house , he was just coming by in the mornings to check on things, which you need to do in this hood.
Follow your gut.
I wont be meeting up for coffee…..but we can still talk on the street if we happen to meet.
