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.

Go take a shower, grab something to drink, and you will feel better for it.

Howdy-do BellaFam 💖 Sunny/warm; only about 75 today, compared to 90 of the last few days 🌞 Up early for a load of towels; set the dryer-timer for 60 mins & the larger ones were still more than damp — i hate this dryer 😠 Went to brush my teeth/spit and there was no water! Chuck was lucky, he’d been out of the shower for about 10 mins when the water decided to take a walk on the dry-side 😏 It came back on, then off again, off and on for the next couple hours. I can always tell when school is out; it’s the… Read more »

Hi Pam, I hate that about the water. They should give a warning if they know. Do you have a local radio station, or a community FB page? Supper sounds good. I agree with that comic!

If it had stayed off, i would’ve just called them; they’re pretty responsive. If the office is closed, their back-up is the police dept.

Above Pam I asked how you are and I found out-how many years does it take to fix the water? that’s a lot to ask when you have 90 temps. I love canned green beans so much so that I eat a whole can😋😂 like I just open one up and eat it hot or cold with Italian dressing if its cold

They filed for bankruptcy; not really sure what will happen to their canned goods — but i do know they’re planning to chop down all their fruit trees 💔😭

I just got done cooking a regular meal which is about all she eats anyway. Breaded chicken tenders, Bob Evans ,ashes potatoes and Mac and cheese, fresh corn. We have some left over green beans, fresh tomatoes, a biscuit. So she will have plenty.

I wanted to show you the two bumps on my finger and how red it is. I used to have more good days than bad days but now it seems all I have is bad days filled with pain. This hurts so bad all the time. It’s even causing my fingernail to kind of curve it in while it grows. I’ve googled it. I know what it is but there doesn’t seem to be any treatment for it.

you would think. I hesitate to tell you but months ago when I first got this I showed it to Julie and she thought it was an infection and gave me this cream prescription that you can only put on twice a day but you know how many times a day I wash my hands at least 50 so it’s kind of hard to use. But anyway I don’t think she knew what it was she was just guessing but Google said some about seeing a dermatologist I have an appointment next week with the dermatologist so I think I’ll… Read more »

By ALL MEANS ask the dermatologist. That is what they are for. If he doesn’t know he will probably know who might.
The cream I spoke of I believe was twice a day and instructions even told you to squirt out an inch of the stuff. Not many creams do that.
Put that cream on shortly before bed, giving it some time to soak in. Then tape some guage around the joint and don’t wash. Do it now and you can tell the derm you used it for a week.
Take a photo before you apply it the first time.

You should use it so your derm will know the effectiveness. It may also help his dx. Just don’t forget a close up of it before using the medicine.

It can also be inflammation like rheumatoid, lupus, those kind of diseases.
