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 Bellas todays the same as yesterday but with some storms. “Happy July” Just hope people keep safe and in dry areas don’t light off fire works and start more fires its a scary reality for many. Yesterday a neighboring community brought out a firetruck to spay kids at a play ground great fun was had by all, they also used this as a training session…

Good morning Sunshine. That sounds like such a fun thing to do for the kids. Looks like they came well prepared, with swin suits on, so it was advertised not a surprise. Good they could include training. Have a good day.

It was a win,win for everyone, yes they did say they were going to do it. I have only seen once here where they opened a fire hydrant for the kids. There are splash pads all around the city now for kids to play in. There’s one that’s close to me, I was thinking of going and enjoying it🤔😂

Good idea. Go to a splash pad and have fun with the kids, maybe adults too.

I’ll start from the beginning of the posts of the day that I just read. Pam, i’m so glad y’all are ok. It has been quite a scare, and still worried. 🙏And it was nice to give Rick the bliss of ignorance. Debbie, that’s a great picture of Ardyth and Rick. You probably won’t know who this is, but Rick looks a lot like Casey on Yellowstone. Ardyth looks like a young model. Very nice looking couple and a very nice picture. Thank you for posting it. Julie, the baby Monarchs are so cute! No, they are adorable. I wanted… Read more »

Good job Karen, you really summed up the day! I tried to find Ardy’s wedding picture but I couldn’t. I really thought I had it. Ardy has always been a pretty woman. Rick pretty handsome too! I hope you and Pam both aren’t bothered with fires. I don’t think tennis is that hard to learn. Love just means zero, deuce means tied game. But I suppose anything can be hard to learn if you don’t have someone to explain it. But things are easier now with google and AI. I’ve never watched soccer enough to learn it, but I think… Read more »

Debbie, I love all the tennis players from back then that you love – plus Agassi. I just didn’t know very much about the game, even though I watched it. Now that I do know the scoring, and all the terms that are used, I enjoy even more. More unique tennis terms: (game), set, match, ace, fault, and more. Wouldn’t be tennis without them. But I sure took a while figuring out why they had to have a set and a game along with a match. 🤣😂 How long do you figure Ardyth and Rick have been married? I estimated… Read more »

I know at least 42 years the love birds have been married, but it could be longer.

I was using a McCormick plain pepper mill for black pepper but it got so hard to do with my hands. I’ve always wanted a good pepper mill so I ordered one with some peppercorns.
