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 evening…I went to an art show at the coffee shop with my cousin today..of course afterwards we got coffee drinks, a pistachio iced latte for me..and chatted for quite a long time. I’ll answer a couple questions up here…the dog homework is so they don’t forget what they have learned and also they need things to do…we are taking another dog class with Bane at this time, also. The agility course..it’s just a few pieces that I put up and take down/put away each time..they all fit in an almost flat, round zip up bag…weave poles and a tunnel..there’s… Read more »

Good night Julie. Tomorrow is the 1st day of May. I know things don’t just automatically flip, but maybe when you look at the date, April won’t scream at you. You only got about 4 hours of April left. Hugs and love, sweetheart. Enjoy your evening.

It will be soup tonight. Probably chicken noodle. It’s kind of chilly, so that will fill me up and warm me up at the same time. Lots of vegetables in the soup too!! Maybe have a couple of crackers too.

Lot’s easier for sure. It must not be the concentrated one because that one doesn’t have veggies. Canned carrots are an easy way to add veggies to soup.

Call on the phone, or text a list of the records you have. Then take the records they are interested in to the shop.

I “died” twice in 2023, even tho I don’t think of it like that. You can’t die really and live. But that is one reason I’m cleaning out so much of my stuff. That, and all we went through with our parents.

I did that too, Debbie, back in 2008, with pneumonia, but I still can’t get it together to start on it. Besides, they might like my stuff. Just joking. I remember my stepfather sweeping all my Mom’s stuff away. 😪

Well, on the bright side, it might give somebody a job carrying my stuff out, and somebody might want to sell some of it and make a profit. 🙃

Julie, hope you can save your plantings  🙏 
3 of the large 5 fruit-farms in Colo have lost their crops because of the weather: peaches, cherries, apples, plums  😢

From what the Post said, Palisade was one of the saved ones; so those peaches are okay. Hope the weather cooperates in the next few weeks

Yes, one of the interviewed farmers said they’d put out the big heat lamps/fans throughout the orchards but it was too cold for too long a time  😢  Once the blooms arrive, there’s not a lot that can be done. And it was so warm so early …

I don’t think the roots were damaged, so the trees themselves are okay. I don’t know how the farmers who lost so much will survive; hope the Fed will step in — you know that’ll happen  😔
