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.

I just got up from a little nap. Now I will prepare a little meal for Dutchess and then start on fixing mine. Maybe meatballs, rice and green beans. Sounds bland, I know. But I got used to eating that way when I had diabetes. Hope all is well. 🤗 Oh my! I just looked at the nest and there’s only one hummer there! I haven’t read posts yet . . . .

Hi Debbie. Maybe, but I actually like the taste of it was just a little bit of margarine. I don’t use salt either, so I think I taste it more than most people. 😅

That is good! What kind of rice do you use?

Karen Marie

Reply to  KyDebbie

I use plain old White rice, Walmart brand, Great Value. I just use instructions on the back, which I think is the standard way, and it tastes great. But then, I have a very bland palate. 🙂 Off to do a couple of things. I am having a lot of trouble posting. Be back in a while. ♥️

I like just plain food sometimes…not sure about white rice with diabetes but I know diabetics who probably eat worse…the meat balls sound good, I’ve never made them.

I used to think white rice was terrible. 😂 But a small amount is okay if it’s served along with a vegetable and a protein to slow down the sugar absorption. I can eat quite a bit more brown rice than white! But sometimes, I just want that white rice fluffiness and flavor. The meatballs were just ground beef, mixed with some onion powder, garlic powder, and ketchup, rolled into balls and then fried in olive oil. And then the green beans made it all really simple. I like the green beans with no flavoring.

Yes, it is good. But I am still careful though. I don’t know why I didn’t see this post earlier, I think i’m just tired. I hope I don’t keep you awake, beeping. 😧 😘

I understand…I still think that 😂 but if I really really liked it maybe I’d have a bit…the only time I have it is if we get Chinese food and that isn’t very often. those meatballs sound delicious.
