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! Still morning here. Happy Birthday Micheal! Sweet memories, Julie. 💕🙏 We need to have some toking activities planned for 4:20 this afternoon. I saw they had a big article about the dog farm on our local news last night. New laws needed, for sure! I got up about an hour and a half ago, took care of the baby, and went and checked the Southwest Florida eagle nest. It looks like our little baby has gone out on her great adventure. 🥰 / 😪. I have some paperwork I have got to get done today, so I am… Read more »

Hi Karen. I agree with what you said. We need good laws, otherwise every situation will be addressed as a specific situation. If we don’t have a research law to prevent these kind of research programs in the first place, then for each case that comes up animal abuse will have to be proven. That is, IF and that is a big IF, there are animal abuse laws on the books. Not every place has animal abuse laws. what are toking activities? I had heard the eaglet at SWFL had gone on. I hope she is ok. Seems earlier than… Read more »

So toking is slang for this “holiday”” or maybe the actual partaking of the substance.

It’s turned into a sit in, outside of the Govenor’s office. people are here from all over the country. Other people from other states want to take, rescue one of the dogs. It’s turned ito one of the largest animal rights demonstrations.

That is wonderful Julie. Something will probably happen for these dogs. But laws are needed so police action can take place without a targeted demonstration.

Hello…last night we went out for dinner and I got an omelet..just finished it for lunch, it was big. This morning I went to tai chi with my mom and then we tried the drumming class but didn’t stay long because my mom’s leg was hurting and also she wanted to rest before going to lunch. I dropped of a few more donations also. I’ll start on laundry but that’s about it, have a petsitting job later.

yes they are…I just got a simple one, with feta in it. Tai chi is kind of fun, my first time..I can feel it a bit in my muscles..the movements are slow and pretty easy until at the end when we were combining movements..I had never done it so was a bit off or behind in my movements and trying to follow what he/ they were doing.

I believe that is what I’m eating, and yes I do! I buy blueberry. I’m trying to remember if I have eaten the coconut. I think I have and liked it. I know I have a box in the freezer. Cinnamon but I tend to like the fruit ones best.
