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 came home after church and had a little lunch and then I went to JC Penney. OMG! I really have not had much luck at JCP in the last few years. The store is jam packed with clothes and I really can’t find anything I like. They hardly had any capris to speak of so I didn’t even try any on. So I found a few tops I liked and they all looked like crap on me, they were either too big or they were too small. I did buy one that I thought I liked Then I got… Read more »

Oh Ardy that is so frustrating. I wish clothes had a more standard sizing. Doesn’t sound like you had a good shopping experience. I hate trying on clothes but there is no way around it.

I don’t shop for clothes much anymore…I do like Kohl’s but it’s in another town and it’s been so long since I’ve been there…we don’t have a Penney’s here anymore. We do have a Maurice’s here and once in awhile I go there..bought a couple $10 tops there, they were on clearance.

😡 I had the window open, Jo shut it while I was in the shower. I guess she thought I wouldn’t notice. It is 80 outside and 77 in the house. The only window I opened was the front storm door window so you are not even in the wind draft.

Actually I’m in a cool mood too. But I would not be cooler with the window open. It really isn’t a thing about temperature. It is more about compromise and being reasonable and realizing an 82 outside is not colder than a 78 inside.

Hello…I’m sitting on my porch and it’s windy! But warm. Yesterday we had a couple stores to go to and it took awhile..also went to his dad’s last night..showed FIL some pictures and chatted with the caregiver. We got home kind of late so I just had some leftover soup from the restaurant we went to the night before. Today I went to church..it was a special service and meal for our pastor who is going on sabbatical for a few months..the meal was so good..and lots of food, brought some home. Chicken, LOTS of sides and desserts. I’m not… Read more »

Afternoon Lynn, nice you were able to go to the church luncheon for your pastor and you have leftovers too😋wind just started to pick up here, it was sunny clouded up and rained, storm fronts at work, cold front to the north and it draws energy from the warm air south, that’s what makes the wind. Have a great walk if you decide to go😘
