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.

Well, that was crazy, i posted and Kitty called, we’ve been on the phone ever since. Got a text from the hospital; they started the procedure about 20 mins ago, expect it to last around 4 hours; then he’ll be ICU for the next 24 hours. 🙏

I have been having trouble staying on-site all day. Feel like a football. I hope Rick’s surgery is going smoothly. 🤗 Where is the Duluth cam?

She’s doing OK sounds better than yesterday, she’s going to Ashland tomorrow, I told her if she still feels crappy she can always go to urgent care, so I got that in her head to think about

KyDebbie

Reply to  julie

So she didn’t get a test? I think she should consider Urgent care. But she will be past getting Paxlovid, but maybe there is supportive care she can still take.i wonder if they put your dad on Paxlovid, I think there may be another medicine.

Nope no test, I’m not sure about my Dad she was going to call him after I got done talking to her, she said she would call me if anything changes there

Hey there BellaFam 💖
1.30p and already 101F, heading to another 108 degree day — Lordy!
They took Rick in at 1p; my tummy feels like someone stomped on it. I know it’s a common operation, just not on a member of my family.
Chuck made pizza then felt guilty because Rick loves it 😋
This is so true ↓↓

Hi Pam. Are you at the hospital? So they took him an hour ago. How did Rick take it? Has he had surgery before? Hang in there, it will soon be done. He is probably in recovery by now. I know it is stressful but he is in good hands and this is a piece of cake for them! Not a piece of cake for you, Rick or family, it doesn’t work that way for you. Tomorrow take a pizza to Rick!
I can understand the sentiment of that funny! My sympathy! 😁

He knows your thinking of him💖 any surgery is scary. Just keep reminding yourself that he’s come a long ways from his fall and that this surgery will make him healthy and he will feel good for his PT and recovery. He’s moving forward Pam😘He’s stronge!!!!
