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.

This illness is getting worse, you can wash your food but it doesn’t kill this bug, only cooking does

I hope they can narrow down the supply chain from where it is coming from. Surely it isn’t all suppliers.

Some restaurants are cutting their food supplies changing their menus like Taco Hell. Its been found in every thing from berries to lettuce to green onions. They can’t figure out where its point of origin is. It might just be occuring in the soil

Hope they figure this out. It can be serious for people in bad health.

Right just have to wash everything, vinegar doesn’t kill the bug either. Wash your hands well too

Seems like a good time to not eat some raw things, especially things from the north or hard to wash.

Yes and I can see why sometimes like blackberries, lettuce, would be very difficult to get really clean.

Oh dear that isn’t good! I think they said there was one case in north KY. I’ll be sure to listen for more info in local (Lexington) news this afternoon.
I guess things like this are why my doctor didn’t want me to loose more weight.

We had something similar for the one in the middle. It would fold up small, then spring into form when you unfolded. We used it to take on camping trips so our first cat could sit outside with us.

Good morning Sunshine. How fun to go to that festival, and with Mary! I hope you can find some shade to sit in. I’ve seen fold up bag chairs that come with a top attached for shade. They were really cute. You will enjoy going to this festival.

Great music and its a French festival so creole music too, one band Judy and I saw in Louisianna at the music festival there😍 it will just be so hot. The air will be hot they have big tents set up with fans and misting tents, but that doesn’t help much when the heat index will be over 100

This festival sounds like a great one. My friend Cathy had trouble with heat, she would put a bag of ice under a hat on her head!

Good night to all my dear friends here in Bellaland. Have a pleasant night and peaceful too. Love to all.
Has anyone here heard from Lin? She hasn’t responded to any of my emails since 3/12. I hope she is ok, I worry. It is fine if she doesn’t want to talk, I understand. I just want to know if she is ok.

I haven’t heard from Lin, either. I bet she is so busy this time of year. Plus, I think she was going to try to raise butterflies this year. May she will check in soon.

Running so late!!! Bed is the next thing on my list. Just a busy day and nite. 😵 Could barely keep up with .myself. Still having muscle pains and moving slow, but everything else is not moving slow. Makes things really tough. Oh well. I missed chatting today. 😥 Seriously. Will try to catch up tmrw. I will try to read some posts before I go to sleep. Hope everyone sleeps cozy and comfy. Goodnight!! 🌼🪷

I just came to say good night, thinking at the same time I hadn’t seen Karen all day. I need to post that I missed her. And there you were! You must have had a busy day. Sorry about the muscle pains. Were they caused by medicine? Activity? I know about shoulders, hernia repair, RA, but this was muscle. So what is moving fast. Well I’m off to bed and sounds like you need to also. Good night dear Karen, get your rest and sleep with peace. Love you.
