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 would have done it last night, but I fell asleep sometime. I don’t even know when. I have gotten totally exhausted during this process. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining. It’s been well worth my time and effort, and I wouldn’t have it any other way, I just haven’t caught up yet. 🥱 😍

I wondered where you went last night. You are a good mama Karen. You are taking the nest care of your naby, that is why she is getting better.

Thanks, Debbie. I remember I was chatting, and then it was 4:10 a.m., I think, and I was holding my phone, saying, why won’t this work!? I have no idea what I was talking about. 😂🤣

Stopping back in for a bit, I’m cooking ramen added a bunch of stuff to it and making it a meal, I added cubed boneless chicken thigh, carrots mushrooms peppers and brussel sprouts sliced thin, will crack an egg in it to make it like egg drop soup and then chopped green onion, I have a chill from walking in the wind before and I needed soup😋

Sorry I missed this, Butterfly🦋😍. My day has been busy, trying to catch up a little bit. Over all, though it’s been okay. I’m glad you enjoy cooking. I’m glad you got a nice walk in today, also. I need to start doing that if I can. 😘

That sounds wonderful Julie. You are right, you made a gourmet meal from simple ramen noodles. It will be delicious. It is like in a fancy restaurant, you look at the soup part of the menu. One is $5.99, $6.50, $7.99, then there is one $12.99. Yours is that $12.99 one.

It said there was a retention pond. But this is a huge appliance factory in the middle of Louisville. They must have stocked the pond.

See Julie’s answer. She is right. This is smack in the middle of a good size city. The Ohio river is several miles away. Why not somewhere on that river? But I know Berry in GA is a college campus. But this is a factory.

Howdy-do BellaFam 💖 Went into La Junta to get my car title changed over from the bank to me; i’ll get it in a couple weeks. Then treated myself to a lovely b-fast at Village Inn. The one we have out here is very, very good; I always have a good experience there. The management/staff are the best. I had their Eggs Benedict Florentine; instead of Canadian bacon, poached eggs comes with spinach, tomatoes, Swiss cheese on a toasted English muffin; it was excellent. And i just couldn’t help myself, they had fresh strawberry crepes as a meal, but they… Read more »

Hi Pam 🌹I bet you are excited! It takes so long to pay them off. Dutchess is acting more normal every day, thank you. 🥰 I’m excited about possibly seeing her at 100% again. I’m still trying to figure out how she got a UTI, though.

Great news about Dutchess. People just get UTI’s like any other infection, guess dogs do too.

i think it’s less likely if they drink enough water, hard to get some pets to do that, though..well at least cats.

First of all, a tremendous congratulations on paying off your car. That is a wonderful accomplishment and a very happy moment. Wow that breakfast sounds delish. I don’t think I’ve ever had stuff like that. I’ll have to google to even remember what it is but I know very good! You desired to reward yourself. Cute putter.
