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 Bella Buds, we are 70 already. I’m going to make a new Catalina French salad dressing. It is sugar free, and I can make it fat free. I’m hoping it is tasty. Tossed salads or even chef’s can be low calorie and healthy if not for the dressing. But I don’t like no dressing and forget the oft advised lemon juice! So we will see how good it is. I bought Xanthan gum as a thickener. ‘My this and that when not in the kitchen will be hopefully finishing up cleaning my files. It has been a tough… Read more »
homemade dressing is healthier, there is a lot of crap added to the store ones. I might make one with just olive oil, balsamic vinegar, spices.
I have a recipe for honey mustard and French but they are NOT fat free
that would be healthier then, to me
My recipe said I could make it fat free or 1-2 tbs olive oil. I can tweak the recipe. I’ve already learned to mix the gum with a liquid immediately or it will clump!
Home made dressing yum, I just buy sugar free-less work. And Good Morning Debbie😍
The sugar free have a lot of calories, like 80 per 1 or two tablespoons. I like a lot of dressing, so I wanted to make a lower calorie one. I can find oil free, sugar free, but I haven’t found oil and sugar free.
Oil shouldn’t matter many kinds have no carbs Kroger carries no oil no sugar salad dressing- you just have to read the lables, just look for sugar free there are many kinds😘
Oil has a lot of calories. I’m watching both bad carbs and calories. To loose weight you need to do that for sure. When you are done loosing and want maintenance, then you can add calories. Yes, I know olive oil is good for you, but I eat plenty on my low calorie veggies I cook, as well as when I pan fry meats.
Good , good …i put olive oil on my veggies, too.
what is the recipe
Good morning…my sister is still here at our mom’s…she stayed because she was tired and also her DH said maybe he’d be ok for a few days and to see how he is tomorrow/today…so not sure yet when she will leave. We (our mom, sister, and I ) went to McD’s for fish sandwiches and sat in the park to eat them. She didn’t come over last night, too tired. We have a chance of rain and storms later today, late afternoon. Last night I watched AI …there are several that I like. bbl…
Hi Lynn
It would be nice if your sister stays a few days.
Hi Ardy…either way it’s fine…don’t know what she’ll decide..if she stays she’ll mostly do jobs at our mom’s and the weather doesn’t look that great this week. Yesterday was nice.
Good morning Lynn, I’m glad your sister has a little more time there. Seems to me she was tired when she first got there. I think you don’t like your local Arby’s, but ours has a fish sandwich that is way better than McDonald’s. At least ours is. Years ago my barber asked if I had got one, said they were really good. So I did, and they were. They only have them during Lent so they won’t be around much longer. I haven’t watched AI yet, maybe today.
hmm? I like Arby’s and so does DH. I do think McD’s fish sandwich is easier on the stomach. Also it’s farther to go and my sister said the same thing, easier on the stomach and there was a park closer to McD’s. DH and I did get the fish at Arby’s a couple times already, he likes the McD’s fish a bit better. He likes the roast beef sandwiches and maybe the reubens there.
I dont like the Reubens at Arby’s, at least the one we got them from. I prefer to get them from a better place…..even bars make great Reubens here.
Good Morning Lynn, I watched both AI and the Voice last night so many good singers and voices-its nice to hear different voices and not everyone sounding alike or the same style. 😘Glad your sister stuck around and you got to picnic in the park😍
Hi and a good day to you all. Debbie, i replied at the fish. You might have not seen it, because maybe your bell doesnt work. My bell is doing nothing for me.

Good Morning Gabi💙🌱 furniture shopping Oh fun what are you and DD shopping for? hope your day is going good😘
Hi julie
I am in a hurry, its 3pm already . DD wants to buy a new sofa, dining table and chairs, coffeetable, curtains, rugs. My DH and DD just finished painting her livingroom etc. , i cleaned up after it. Well, she did some cleaning , too, i helped her. I hope you are well. Have to go now, byeeee. 🙂
Shopping for those will be fun😃
Hello Gabi, have fun shopping with your DD
Thank you ardy, my feet will hurt tomorrow, it will be a long day.
My bell doesn’t work either, and on my tablet I don’t even see the ball. Congratulations on loosing 12 pounds. That is a lot because you are not very heavy, should make a big difference. Awwww the cute little dachshunds! They came from Germany you know. When our family got ours I had to go to the library to find a German name for the registration papers! Hope you enjoyed all the shopping. It can be very tiring, but fun too, especially with your daughter.
furniture shopping with DD sounds fun.
Dachshunds are called ” Dackel ” over here.🙂
Oh i will be tired tomorrow after the shopping.
I talked to HNF yesterday, they are working in the bell
Hi Deborah and thanks😘
Thanks a lot deborah. It is much better WITH the bell.🔔🙂.

I have a Coleman out door stove for camping-thats the closest I have to a Bunsen Burner😂
Hi jULIE,
It smells like rain here, 30% chance they say
Good Morning Ardyth, I just love the smell of rain🤗
Good morning Sunshine. We didn’t get any rain yesterday either. I think we will probably later today. Have the best day possible.
Good night all my Phriends, that includes peepers too. Y’all have the best night possible, love to all. 🥰♥️
My bell and circle still don’t work. 😢
Mine don’t either. It is everyone I think. I said goodnight below.
Ok. Ty for the info. 🤗
My blue ball works sometimes I don’t use the bell
Karen if you make it back to chat, did you make another appointment for Dutchess with the bet? Or maybe you decided it isn’t necessary? Just thinking about you both.
Hi Debbie. 🤗 Ty so much for thinking of us. just getting ready to eat. 😬 I plan to talk to vet tmrw. Before I go in. Couldn”t get through to her today. I probably won’t be back on the hummer site til tmrw. I am having an Arby’s roast beef sandwich with red ranch on it it. It will be so good! Plus I am having potato cakes. Then I will stay up about half an hour or an hour to work some of that off. Plus I have to work on dog food tonight. Some days just get… Read more »
Good night Karen. Enjoy your Arby’s. I love Arby’s red sauce that comes on the beef n cheddar. Let us know what the vet says.
You really are a busy bee. I couldn’t do your long day, and still dog food to do. Thank for being happy for me that I’m better. The trying to actually loose weight should be over in a month or two, I’m already normal. Now you wrap up your work, get to bed and get your sleep. Wishing you those kind of dreams you hate to wake up from. Peace in your heart. Love you.
Thank you, sweetie. I will go to bed shortly. You have those good dreams, too. Maybe I wii dream of you. ♥️🥰😇 Love and kisses from Dutchess and me. 💙🩵💙🩵
