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 Sunshine and a bright day for you. I imagine the male neighbors had rather look at you in short shorts, but I guess with the bathrobe they can imagine what is underneath! 🤣. Give Jadie a hug for me.

Good afternoon Gabi. Did you get something good to eat. I was wondering, does Germany have such a thing as Daylight Savings Time?

I bought milk, bananas, tomatoes, broccoli, carrots, leek, tofu,…
Yes, we have such a “time” . Works like this: 6pm suddenly is 7 pm. The days are “longer”.
Nobody likes it, it doesnt save anything. Wish it would get disestablished.🙄

You bought lots of good, healthy things. I think everyone here likes having to undergo change twice a year in the time. Set some clocks, adjust to the new time.

To me I hate adjusting time of sleep and meals. It was especially bad when I worked. I was very sleep deprived.

The different sleep time doesnt bother me. I go to bed late , so it really doesnt make a difference.

I can understand that. But when I worked I needed to wake up by the clock, but if it was a time when my biological clock said I was allowed another hour of sleep, that led to sleep deprivation. I had a lot of sleep deprivation as it was. Now I find I do better by sticking with a loose schedule of going to bed and getting up.

It didnt even bother me when i was working and getting up with my alarm clock. The only thing i dont like is setting all the clocks. But people are different. Some are affected and some arent.
I am glad that you sleep better now. Taking it easy, because you CAN . 😊👍.

Bedtime for me now. Good night dear debbie.

what is the difference in your salads?
Does Jo cook?

KyDebbie
March 9, 2026 9:03 pm

Jo cooks eggs. She knows how to cook salmon patties but hasn’t cooked them for a long time. She never cooks a whole meal unless it is breakfast or canned soup. Maybe toasted cheese sandwich. Things like that.

Mmmm, salmon patties. I am getting hungry. Just fed Dutchess. Now I have to bag up all the portions for the next few days or so. I will eat a TV dinner. Too tired to cook for me. Plus I forgot how to cook rice!!! Slowed me down. 😂
