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.

Hi all😍I have had a great time outside, I got to see a Fabbit do the funniest thing, it came out from hiding to sun its self, it rolled around and then lay belly up to let the sun shine on its tummy, such a nature moment that if you were’t watching you would never know they did that😃

Yesterday I think it was Ardy and I had a short conversation about using the microphone to make posts here. Last night my dear sister sent me a text that had m e laughing so hard I cried. It was her first hilarious attempt using the microphone and with her southern drawl and it hasn’t learned her voice, it is just too funny. She gave me permission to share it. Said laughter is good for the soul. I hope you laugh as much as me, but I imagine you will need some interpretation of what she is saying. ********** Well… Read more »

The software has to understand your spoken words in order to type it out. I know it doesn’t record but knows your voice to type it out. It is called voice recognition I think. I have always struggled with robo calls that don’t understand me.

Nope the hens can’t lay fertile eggs, there is no rooster. Apparently the chickens will brood a fertile egg not their own. . Read where she wrote the broody hen got off the eggs to go get water and eat.

Hi Karen that would be fun. Nancy was a good sport to let me post it. When I talk to her on the phone and she is telling me something her sentences don’t have much pause to them so they run together. I could hear her in my head.

Hello, I finally have a chance to sit down. Well that lady got away with over $4,000. What she did was she paid off her credit card with our checking account and I have her name. So Alfonso called and filed a claim for fraud while we were there and on speakerphone. Basically we have to wait 40 days while they do their thing researching, investigating, etc. So we will not get our $700 that we had in our checking account until this is settled. So at least 40 days then we went to social security. Probably had to wait… Read more »

How did you find her name and how did she get the router number? Seems like the router number would be easier to come by than your account number. I don’t know how they could guess the account number. Who is Alfonso? This sounds like a thing for police, court, jail for her.

I confused a bank “routing number” with a personal “router number”. I was thinking the bank routing number when you meant your computer’s WIFI routing number. A tech person can probably help you understand how someone stole your router number, but I think they would still need a password.

So it was the bank’s routing number. That should be easy to find. Everyone at that bank should have that same number. The account number is just for you so harder to steal.

Hard to believe that could happen with all of today’s software. I am guessing there was some kind of a glitch or something with the software. They should give you your money right away and not make you wait. It was something that never should have never happened. Not your fault.

Hope she goes to prison for that; sounds like a felony amount, depending on state law. What a stupid criminal, guess that’s how they get caught; cuz she is dumber than a sack of hammers.
