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 Bella Buds. It is a nice day today, a window has been open all night. When I got up Macie was in it. Jo is on her way to Somerset for a stress test. She will be happy to have it done, and so will I. Jo has sorta freaked out about it. In her life Jo has had so little wrong with her. Yes, she had cancer and went through a lot for nearly 2 years. The hardest part was getting it diagnosed. She had so many invasive tests trying to get a diagnosis. At the same… Read more »

Good Morning Debbie, Jo will be happy she did the test and that its over at the end of the day😘 you have a Jocation today😍 they need to check how bad the leak is and if it needs to be fixed. Make sure her oxygen levels stay good in her blood for her organs to function

I actually bought an Oximeter recently, the little thing that goes on your finger. But Jo doesn’t seem to get out of breathe. We will see.

Hi Debbie. 😍 This doesn’t seem to be too far in the basement today to reply to. I’m glad Jo went in. I hope that all of the results are good. A pulse oximeter is a good thing to have, just to have an idea of how things are going.

Hello. I have been busy all day, working some on the technical problems from last night. No one can explain it, but no, none of us will receive any refunds due to lack of service for many hours. But, I did get to chat with more neighbors again, which was fun. Even though we were upset. Maybe have a neighborque in the next few weeks. I also did some laundry and checked the yard for bushes/trees needing manicures. Now I get to make supper. Tilapia with brown rice and asparagus. Goodnight to the early birds. Sleep good and be all… Read more »

I’m sorry about your technological problems. Have you talked to the companies that provide these services? It can be fun to talk to neighbors. Are you just now meeting these neighbors, or are you already friends? Your supper sounds good, and very healthy! Do you bake or fry your fish? Regardless enjoy.

I had talked to some of the neighbors previously, but just a little bit. The others, I had no clue about. So that part was pretty cool. And we all did individually talk to everybody involved as far as why the problems happened and what could be done about it, but no one really knows and there won’t be any refunds or anything. Even though they say things are being investigated. 🤔 I am baking the tilapia tonight. Goes better with the sides. What did you have? I don’t think you mentioned your menu.

I had baked boneless chicken thighs , kale, tomatoes. I had a piece of corn but put it back up because I got full. I put some BBQ sauce on the chicken, sugar free. It really is pretty good. Do you and your neighbors all have the same internet provider and cell phone company. Isn’t that what is wrong? I can see having the same internet provider but it would be unusual to all gave the same cell provider.

Your meal sounds good too. I could eat chicken every day of the week. Some of the problems had something to do with all of the people on the limited Broadband or whatever it’s called, competing for time in the area. But they haven’t even been able to pin that down exactly yet. People won’t really say exactly what they have, but I know we are all on the same phone company internet provider, because I see their user names listed when I get on my system. It sounds really weird, but there are 5 of us that had nothing,… Read more »

Karen that sounds like all of you are on the same WI-FI sy/stem. That sounds dangerous to me, like maybe they could hack into your computer. One type I had a neighbor and she asked me if she could use my WI-FI and for the Wi-Fi password. I told her I didn’t know my password, which was sorta true. But I think at the time the password was written on the bottom of the router. But even tho I basically trusted her, I didn’t want her using my WI-FI. It is for the same reason they tell you to be… Read more »

I use private wifi through the actual wifi and land line provider. Wifi is assigned via neighborhood, but the only way to get access is to know that user’s ID and password, and one other things, which i don’t remember right now. And they also provide city wide streaming services. They are reputable.
I was shocked to see that Monfils is still playing. I like him a lot.

Guess I just don’t know how it all works. Monfils is not in the singles any more in the French Open. He lost in the first round. But I suppose he could still be playing doubles. I don’t keep up with that and usually it isn’t televised until late in the championship.

Could be a problem with the cell tower and if they are installing fiber optics?

I must say, last night/yesterday afternoon, was like being in the 19th century all over again. No phone, no cable, no internet, no texting, I really didn’t know what to think about it. Actually had to go talk to people outside of my house!!

I have eaten dinner, watered plants, severe thunder storm warnings have been issued storms could have one inch hail, need to move the tomato plants up against the house, it will block the hail some, so I’m doing this and that to be ready for the storm. I won’t be coming back tonight once I shut the computer down. its 84 at 8pm and there’s lots of fuel for storms to develope.

She didn’t talk today about pain that I can recall but I just know she has a lot of things that cause pain. So I just said hope no pain tonight.

Goodnight Ardyth. 🤗 Nice that you are getting the medical stuff squared away. I’ve heard doctors are being more careful these days about checking women of a certain age before air travel. Evidently a rise in cardiac events. Altitude and DVT, etc don’t always mix. Sleep good. 💙

Deep vein thrombosis. Blood clots. One of my friends passed away from one a day after a cross-country flight. She was very heavy, but all women have to be so careful.
