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.

Hi Lynn, sure is nice to have someone who can fix things. I am like you sometimes, I just like to have a game on. Even more so when I’m on the computer, not wanting to watch anything with a story, just something to look up at sometimes.

Something about having games on in the background is comforting.

CRAP! Fever should NOT have lost the game! I hate to say it but Caitlin missed two free throws and I think Boston one in the last seconds of regulation. Then Ace won in overtime.

A game? Hi Karen. Glad you got safely home! I’ve got the Fever on now, 3rd quarter. I’ll check out the NFL afterwards. The only good thing to winter is FOOTBALL!

I like listening to Chris, and then they add in other football info that is interesting. Just tid-bits, but i like them. I’m just an addict. 😆 By the way, the little mouse you had on your good morning note today looks like he’s practicing to be an orangutan. 🤣

This is being a pretty good game. I love what the Panthers did for that little Make a Wish boy; so sweet. Then I’m partial to AZ, for a couple reasons, 1 because i lived there and 2, Larry Fitzgerald is one of my all-time favorite players; a genuinely good man; does so much for the community. His mom passed from breast cancer after which he adopted breast-cancer groups; Lian went to a few of the lunches/activities he sponsored. So i love him

First msg disappeared. 🤯 i agree, a really good game. Love Chris and Mike, and their banter. The Panthers made that little boy feel so special They really gave it their all. I was tearing up at the whole thing. I like Fitzgerald, too.

Ahhh . . . . Just think, Pam, last night you were sweating it, afraid you guys would be so hot today, as were we. Quite a worrisome night. I’m so glad you can take a breath tonight and know that all is well on the home front. 🌺 🪷 🌹 Get some sleep tonight. 🩷

Tuesday when Bruce came to meet me at the corners, He has a seat that has a back rest for the passenger but you have to swing your leg up high even with standing on the peg, Its hard to get on it because of the seat

He does, but its motorcycle season, so he rides his bike

He should make an exception for you. You should not be put in pain because it is motorcycle season. It didn’t take long for it to hurt your back. It was just a couple miles wasn’t it?

I’m so sorry, Butterfly 🦋 😘. Would massages help? Maybe even some Ibuprophen? It is often overlooked. I hope you will be able to at least ease the edge tonight. Thinking of you. ❤️

Bet a gummy would help. A real one that starts with T. No not him! The real marijuana one, not hemp kind. But I know nothing. I need to learn.

Hi Lynn nice you brought your Mother a pretty boquet and tasty cucumbers😋 The coils hold the Freon for the AC unit that’s what makes the AC have cooled air. Hamburgers grilled oh yummy Lynn😋
