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.
Need to go get some coffee some time today I’m out, will go earlier than later because of storms
Good morning! Was up all night with Nikki in and out in and out so I didn’t get much sleep. Anyway I’m off to get my haircut. My appointment’s at 9:15 and here’s our forecast. It’s heating up… Sunny and hot
Good Morning Ardyth have a great haircut😍at least your night time temps will be cooler😘
Good morning Ardy. Oh dear, poor Nikki and her bowels still in an uproar? Poor Ardy to. I hope you get a good haircut.
Good morning…it’s been raining a lot, so won’t have to water flowers. I guess the main thing today is laundry but won’t be able to hang things outside so I’ll hang them in the basement. Other than that, might do a couple this and that things. I’ll try to BBL
I’m doing the same as you Lynn😘
Good morning Lynn. A rainy day plan. We have rain in the forecast for 10 days.
Good morning Bella Buds. We are cloudy, 75. We got heavy rains and storms coming. I just placed a Kroger order to pickup at noon tomorrow. Bet I’ll be getting that in with rain. Y’all have the best day possible.
Good Morning Debbie😘 we are blessed for having rain, hope there’s no flooding for folks
Good morning Bellas, I took a nap yesterday that lasted till the morning-I don’t sleep as well when its hot and humid. I just zonked out yesterday. its cool and raining right now talked to myMotheryesterday and it sounds like my Dad won’t be making it home againI feel so bad for my Dad and Mom. Its so hard to think about. We have heavy rains coming and thunderstorms late afternoon.
Hi Julie…sorry to hear that…the only way, maybe, would be to have caregivers around the clock like we have for FIL..and as you know, Dh is one of them…we are lucky/blessed to have them.
Good Morning Lynn because its so rural up north its hard to find anyone like a care giver to come to my Mom and Dads-they are trying to figure it out….
I understand…we got names from the nursing home (we have several part timers) and then if one quits or gets fired, the other caregivers find someone and take turns working during that time until they find someone
sorry to hear about your dad 🙏…I’ve heard of family members being caretakers quite often, would that be a possibility your brother could look into
yes and also they can get paid for it, a friend of mine’s sister does that
yes, when my dad was bedbound my sister-in-law was his caregiver and she had no medical background, I think it is done in a lot of cases
Oh I am sorry to hear that Julie. Is your dad not doing well or just cant come home to live for other reasons?
24 hour care is expensive unless you have insurance.
He’s about the same-but no major improvements. He needs care
😘
Good morning Sunshine. Oh, I’m so sorry to hear about your dad. What was the primary cause? Stroke? I assume your Mom and brother talked to a doctor about all options, especially home health care paid for by Medicare/insurance. I’ve had several encounters with home health. This last time at one point they sent an occupational therapist. They have lots of physical therapist, but not many occupational ones. That therapist I’m sure had to come a distance that took her one hour to get here. She was on the other side of the lake, had to drive to Somerset then… Read more »
Thanks Debbie, the cause is what got him there the stroke the fall he had-he just not improving, would need care to be at home. They are trying to get help from Medicare-its just taking so long to get any answers
I think DH found out that nursing homes and caregivers cost about the same.
Unless you liquidate assets and apply for Medicaid. It sometimes take a senior advisor and lawyer.
Thats talking beyond what I know is going on right now
I understand Julie. I wish there was a way, more support, more resources. It is hard in an isolated and rural area. There are lots of different government agencies and senior advocates that might have ideas. If he were in a large nursing home in a larger community the nursing home social worker would have more ideas. At least give some government phone numbers.
My Mom has gotten help with trying to figure things out, she has had meetings with someone a advocate that has helped her it just takes time to figure out what to do. It sounds like one thing has to be OKed before the other thing can happen.Thanks for your ideas, already working on things it just takes time
I understand. They are on it. I hope they can find the best thing for your dad and family. Hugs for you.
Good night to all my buddies and anyone just peeping in. Everyone have a good night, see you tomorrow. Love to all.
Y’all, I’m heading to bed. Wonder where Julie is. Hope everyone is okay and that you all sleep well. I know i won’t have any problem. Sweet dreams. 😴 💜💙 Missing hummers.
I was just thinking the same thing.
Good night Karen. Sleep good, sound, sweet dreams and peace. Love. 🥰♥️
