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.

Mine stopped at 8, they were moving so fast they were in and out in a couple of hours- The warm front was coming from the south, just settled in on you guys-the conditions just remained longer in your area

Good morning….a cloudy day, high of 65…my sister is going to stay here with the furkids while we are out and about for a bit. For awhile it was raining really hard last night, think I said that. oh and I forgot to say that DH’s nephew was involved in the launch in some way…think he designs/ builds them? not sure what else but works for NASA and so did his dad. So one of the caregivers watched with FIL. Hope you all have a nice day  😊

I can’t believe how many are on this feeder. I never get more than two or they fight.

Hi Becki. I said the same thing a few days ago. Two on my feeder and they try to kill each other. I think it was Pam that said the Allen’s are more mellow or something like that. Good to see you.

Supper looks good. I’ve never had that kind of chicken. I don’t think I’ve had capers. Not sure. Hope you sleep better tonight.

It’s just chicken breasts pounded out

With a lemon caper sauce which makes it way more than pounded chicken.
