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 Bella Buds. We are a pleasant 82 now, but with a 75% humidity it will feel hot this afternoon. ‘Our new neighbors spent the nite last night. I never say them move in any real furniture but that doesn’t mean they didn’t Tuesday when we went to Somerset. Or, maybe they slept on the floor! I could have done that when I was their age. In fact I did when I first moved to Columbia. I had only lived in places that were furnished. I had a cheap air float. The kind that are thin, cheap plastic and… Read more »
Good morning window peeper😂 how do you know they spent the night and didn’t go to a hotel?
The light was on in the house, I think I woke up and saw it on about 1. Then couple hours or so later the light was off. I’ve been in the living room since about 7:40 and cars are still there. I saw them come out about 9 or so to get something out of a vehicle. So I have been collecting “intelligence” like the FBI, CIA. No, I don’t plan to go back to work for the government. Maybe I could freelance?
Key observations, when I moved into a new place I would clean it before hand, that’s easier than cleaning while your moving in
I believe it is already clean. I’d see the house owners go in there will cleaning supplies several times.
Now that Laura’s house an Air BB Rick and I play detectives every day.
🤣
Lots of brushing for Jade this morning she’s demanding to be brushed, she even rolled on her back so I could brush her tummy she was doing this just for brushes no temptations involed😂
That little cutie. She is probably having a bad hair day due to humidity, maybe smoke that was in the air.
Some days she just wants more brushes, I think removing the loose hair makes her feel cooler, I have a good brush that removes the under coat so it must feel cooler
Macie does not have much hair because we have furinated and brushed her. We try to prevent all the vomiting!
Thats good keeping her from getting sick😘
Roger lays down on the rug in front of the door on the patio wanting to be brushed
Michi not into brushing too much. You have to catch her to brush her
He really wanted a home.
Good Morning Bellas, it rained the air smells fresh and clean, no haze from smoke. That comes back tomorrow. So will enjoy the day Bring Jade outside. Check what’s growing in my garden I have 3 types of squash growing zucchini, yellow and acorn, I have never grown acorn squash before so I want to see if there is any acorn squash growing the plant is huge leaves the size of dinner plates, probably bigger and under those leaves maybe baby acorn squash? I have watered the garden the winter squash needs lots of water to grow just like pumpkins… Read more »
Good morning Sunshine and happy day to you. You and Jadie will enjoy being outside, you in your garden c, her chasing things. I hope you are surprised in a good way with your garden!
I need to get out there its starting to warm up, I was out to pick milkweed leaves for the caterpillars, it was still cloudy the sun is out now we are up to 78 now
It is best during this hot weather to do as much of your outdoor things as early as possible for you. I know you like to hop around all your SPO and YouTube channels in the morning but it would be easier to manage the heat. Late afternoon too but the mosquitos may be worse then.
OMGoodness, this is Cedar Point, OH 😢
Oh no! The Amusement Park! 😢
Goodnight, Pam. I’m praying even harder for some relief from these deadly fires. 🙏
The Midwest and east coast all looked like this,many outdoor events canceled because of smoke
Good night dear Bella. Sleep well, love and hugs.
Has anyone ever heard of anyone else getting a fan and facing it toward and in front of a window air conditioner that’s running well and blowing cold air, turning the fan on and blowing it right into the air conditioners blowing air so that the air will spread out everywhere?
I hope all that makes sense.
I’ve not heard of that but we don’t have a window unit. Seems it would help especially if the AC unit wasn’t blowing hard enough to spread the air.
It blew the coils. A/C now blows hot and cold off and on. Have to get a new one.
Oh no Karen! You have really had bad luck lately. Refrigerator. Seems like something else. Oh, Dutchess! I’m so sorry.
Thanks. My husband did it. He does lots of ignorant stuff. Doesn’t even check with me.
What did he do to blow coils on an AC unit?
Blowing cold air into the front can cause the coils to freeze up. And if it continues, they can die out.
They have to get the warmer air to make the whole process work. That’s how they know when to turn on and shut off.
They back of the unit intake needs to be cleaned, the air intake, they even make a spray for removing the grung that builds up on the out side of the air vents if it can’t get air it can’t work cleaning it I have found makes them work better, they do burn out after a few years of use. My parents have window units and they are cleaned every year before use
Oh, so he blew the fan into the AC which CAUSED the problem. I was thinking you meant would it help the problem? Would it help to circulate the air. Have you tried to just turn it off, let it sit 2 days to thaw out the coils? That actually worked for coils frozen on a refrigerator but I just doing know about an AC unit. It would be worth a try. It would probably take 2 days.
It would normally work to leave the air conditioner off for a while and let the coils thaw out, but he left it alone for so long that it almost totally fried the coils. I left it off for a day and a half and hid out elsewhere. But it ended up blowing cold air for 1 minute and then 80° air for 5 minutes. Over and over. Almost made me sick, it was so hot. It is an older unit I have been babying. Thanks Debbie.
I’m so sorry Karen. So will you try to get it repaired, get a new one?
Thgank you honey. I will get a new one for ‘300 tmrw. I had to blow off some steam
Buy a new AC for $300. Is that what you mean?
Well . . . I don’t know if I can get anything else I want for $300. 😊
As hot as you have been you NEED an AC!
It is beddie time for me dear Karen. I hope you can get a new AC tomorrow and get someone to help get in the window. Love to you and I hope you can sleep. Try to get your rest. Love and hugs. 🥰❤️
This post wasn’t available to me until 10:44, Debbie. I don’t know what happened. I know it’s your bedtime. 😉 Get some sleep. Love and hugs to you. The Saga will continue into tomorrow, and I will fill you in. 😄 ❤️💜
Karen sometimes I see posts that pop up in front of my eyes and I look at the time of the posts and it was posted 10 minutes ago.
Yes, I will have to settle for an ac. And yes, he blew the unit without me even knowing it. Argh. Time for you to go to bed, Sweet Debbie.
Having trouble posting.
So it blew the unit and you didn’t know he did it? Good grief.
Sounds like something that would work
I know they have window fans that do that.
It sort of makes sense? but I would blow the air the other direction out into the room so it spreads out not up against a flat surface the air would go into the AC unit and up and down the wall also it could throw off the AC thermostat. Make it ice up and stop working
What an exciting game. Fever win!!!!
They play again tomorrow.
They will be tired after playing so hard and fast tonight.
I would think so.
It was and Caitlin had 45 points
She is an amazing woman!
Yay, I got to see Caitlin say three words at the end, but yay! I really hate this trying to track down a game every time you want to watch one outside the regular networks.
