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…doing laundry and had my iced decaf coffee, vanilla creme brulee flavor. DH is working from home, he got no sleep last night. I’m thinking he’ll take a long nap at some point. I just had some cottage cheese, think I’ll cut up one of the cucumbers from the farmer’s market.

Good morning Bella Buds and happy Monday. I used to hate Monday, but retirement took care of that. Just little this and that on the agenda today. Y’all enjoy the day.

I didn’t necessarily have more work but I was usually sleepier and knew I had 5 days until another day off. The last 3 years I worked were the most difficult and I would actually get depressed every Sunday night.

The last three years i worked were stressful because they treated me like crap…trying to get me to quit…..most of the original girls at all the shops quit when a certain someone took over to manage all the shops but I stayed.
I was a nervous wreck driving to work daily!!

I was too, especially 2008. I came home most days, had a drink and went to lay on my ned. I’d never done that. Some of the youngest teachers talked about doing things like taking headache medicine. One young PE teacher, and that job is usually the least stressful.

Good morning Sunshine. I know you don’t like the heat. Try to stay cool. Maybe put some damp towels in the freezer. How nice to see the old boyfriend. So he doesn’t have a current significant other? Maybe you can reunite a friendship.

I have no idea about any thing, we didn’t have a chance to talk, so that’s why I said we should get together to talk

It depends who you run into, and what terms you are on and why you split up

Good morning Ardy, I hope in spite of the D again. Take the Pepto. Maybe get some probiotics. They may not help but certainly won’t hurt.
