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.

Yes I gave her the pepper and a little potatoes. I didnt think she would eat a cooked bell pepper until I gave her one yesterday

Good morning. I’m already hot and tired. Once again. I’ve done too much. I washed the outside of the picture window and the inside and outside of the storm doors since they were a mess from the rain. Fed the bird, fed the animals fed the hummingbirds. I also cleaned one room. Now I am washing couch covers towels and a load of clothes I vacuumed. I don’t think you really care what else I’ve done after Rick got out of the shower. He came out to get a paper towel because he thought Nick had an accident in front… Read more »

Awww poor bird. Did one of the cats get it? I guess it could have flown in but that would have been hard not to see.
Ardy you are one mean, green, cleaning machine. Your house is spotless all the time!

Good morning Bella Buds and happy Monday to you. We are leaving for Somerset about noon, I have a dermatology skin check. I don’t really need to go but insirance pays most of it so might as well. Then I will be an established patient and it will be easier to get in if/when I have a real concern. We will go to Walmart and I’m going by Honda dealer and ask about the leaks they mentioned. Y’all have a good day and behave yourselves.

Good morning Sunshine. That little Jade! She wanted to give her Mom a present (or bribe?). So you have 3 tiny eating machines! Do you think you will find more eggs? Oh yes, outdoor jobs are more fun than inside, especially for you! But you have backup if the weather is bad. The rain so far has missed us but just a little north had 2 inches this morning. I imagine we will still get rain.
