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.

Chuck’s home, Rick’s being sent to the full-size hospital, Parkview, in Pueblo tonight. He can’t stand on his own. They brought him a good meal, chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes and fried okra that he had to eat with his left hand. Hope they know he’ll be wanting cake or cookies at 9p 😄

Oh dear, but they got him where he needs to be, they will take care of him. He will probably receive some simple physical therapy fairly soon. I’m really glad Chuck came home so he can get his rest, no reason to sit at a hospital. I’m not sure they will have cake or cookies at 9, but I bet they have ice cream or pudding! Get well Rick. I will pray for all of you. I know you are stressed, but I feel in my gut Rick will be fine. He needs time.

I still don’t think I really did anything wrong Karen, but I’m not going to let it stress me out. I can still use Facebook so I don’t know what what they’re talking about all right? Thanks for being my friend. Good night

I can’t find the right emoji so I’ll just say good night. I hope you can get some sleep but I expect you won’t sleep a lot. I’d guess 2-3 hours. Ardy I really hope you have the best time ever. Lots of fun, girl talk, good food and laughs. Safe travels, not stressed. Just fun. I love you and will miss you. 🎶🎶🎶.

Got up from nap a out an hour ago. A/C in office having probs now. Pulling my hair out again. Almost bald. Debbie, i hope your fridge has straightened up and is running right.

I am so glad I did not get involved w FB. I think it’s another way to get control. Looks like they’re really having success with It too. Infuriating! Back to mailed letters, i guess.

Oh dear Karen it never stops for you. I hope the AC doesn’t go out. We have central heat/air, so it is an all or none thing.

I should have gotten central air when the house was built, but during those days, it didn’t get that hot in Colorado

I figured you probably didn’t get as hot. Did you build the house you live in?

Yes. Well, I selected everything and it was built.

No. Also, Colorado Springs is a big military town. Not very many people stay in one house for more than 4-12 years. They are always getting transferred somewhere else. It’s kind of unusual for somebody to be in a home as long as I have been here.

It’s late, Debbie I know. I’m out of it. Watching Shadow try to take care of his kids and fight off the subs. 😢 Lost track of time. Sleep good, with pleasant dreams all night. Thank you for being my friend as well. 😍 Love you.
