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.

Oh dear. I’m glad I watched Armageddon and I hope I never see another movie like it again! A great movie but …. Oh dear that was enough!

Yep, I’m cryin’. Wasn’t any easier the second time. It was a “proud of America and it’s protectors” movie — back then.

Oh, THAT “Armageddon.” 🤩 I did see it. Just didn’t recognize the name. It was good. I enjoyed it. Pam summed it up well. The theme song, “I Don’t Want To Miss a Thing,” by Aerosmith, is one of my favs..

Okay, I’m going to go back to the kitchen and fix something cool for supper. Maybe I’ll check out that movie some are watching. What channel or stream is it on?

Aye, chi-hua-ha!!!! (Something we used to say when we were kids.) It is Hotsy Totsy. I am spendng my afternoon in the office, which is air conditioned. Hooray! I have stuff to do in here anyway. Kind of gets me off my butt and into paperwork. Not usually fun. I got some not great news at Big Bear eagle nest. Luna was wingercising excessively, and kind of did a hop over Sandy who was at the edge of the nest, and knocked her out of the nest. Sandy went flapping, down to a few branches below and landed. I heard… Read more »

How hot is it outside for you Karen? How much of your house has AC? Oh poor Sandy, but it sounds like she is ok. I hope she makes it back to the nest tonight. The cottage cheese flew like 6 feet, leaving a trail! I didn’t think it would be that hard to clean either. Deb had the nest idea. To use spatulas. Sounded like a winner to me.

It was 94 in the back yard. Only gets worse until the sun starts to set. I suspect it is 96 now, but I’m not going back downstairs to check it right now. That’s what happens when you have a house facing west sometimes, with no big trees to block the sun. I have an AC in the kitchen and in the office. Both rooms face West. I have a fan in my west-facing bedroom, as I’m never there unless it’s night time or morning and it’s always cool then. The other side of the house really doesn’t need ac,… Read more »

Thanks, Debbie. I can manage, just don’t like it getting this hot. The sun and the wind were nothing like this when I was a kid here.

I’m sorry it’s so hot for you Karen. I’ve come to realize there are more people who don’t have AC than I thought, including most of Europe! But you got some AC, fans, trees to manage hopefully.

I’ve had to do water a couple times a day; they seem to appreciate it. Same members of the clowder; pretty sure they’ve been staying under plenty off shade. Poor things 😔
