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.

A cool day for you, chili will be good, and so will cornbread with it. My Mom liked Fritos with chili. I tried it and they were good together. They are made of corn.

We got power on. I went to the power company’s web site and it said the outage was less than 5 households and caused by wildlife in equipment. So I guess it was just us. Probably a squirrel. But it does show how people under certain circumstances can get electrocuted doing things around power equipment.
Now I’ll have to reset clocks. AGAIN! Crap.

Holy smokes Debbie and smoking squirrel probably, they are killed instantly usually at a sub station, great the power is back on don’t do all the clocks at once, just do one or two till they are all done- you can use your phone to see what time it is, if you need to😘this is one reason I don’t change my clocks😃

I think the trouble was at the pole in the yard. I heard a boom but Jo said she thought it was outside her window which is near the pole. I think I got the clocks set. I would be confused all the time if I didn’t set the clocks.

Right before I left to get a haircut we heard a loud bang and our power went out. It is still out but electric company said it was projected to be back on at 1:30 my time. It isn’t just us but I don’t know how many.

Its like RSV but it sticks around longer in your system need to be very careful so you don’t get it. Warmer weather should help knock it down naturally, but people travel when the are sick that’s how this stuff gets spread
