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 Ardy. I’m sure the tomato pie will be delicious. I read there are two styles, bet he is making the southern style. Yum.

The other one was made sounded like sauce where southern made more like fresh tomatoes. They had difference crusts, other ingredients.

Duh….pizza pie…….He is making the one that looks like a pie
1. The Southern Tomato Pie
This is a savory baked casserole featuring a traditional flaky pastry pie crust

2. The Italian-American Tomato Pie (Bakery Style / New Jersey & Pennsylvania)

This is a regional pizza-like dish popularized in Italian bakeries and pizzerias in cities like Philadelphia, Utica (NY), and Trenton (NJ

Its really cool today-it was so warm the last couple of days there will be freeze warnings north of me but we should be OK here fingers crossed, my tomatoes are blocked by the house as far as the wind goes so they should stay warm enough but I need to keep a eye on the temps just to make sure if I need to cover them with a sheet over night
