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.

I am going to heat up some pa-sketti now. That’s what my brother always called it when he was a boy. He just couldn’t get it, for some reason. 😊 Be back soon.

Same here. I dated Mark back home in Austin and then I dated a guy from Phoenix that I really liked but it was long distance and he said it wasn’t going to work so it didn’t last long. Dang plus he didn’t like the makeup that I wore

Well, Phoenix was a party pooper, for sure. Better off without him. 🤣 I dated a guy named Wes here in Colorado Springs, he was so cute, but just too into his bike. I can’t remember the other guy’s name. I liked their friends better. And of course, I loved their bikes!

Belly too fat….need to lose 20 lbs

Karen Marie
August 8, 2026 8:01 pm

I really don’t agree. But maybe you could get away with losing a little if you really wanted to, without looking like a waif, but 20 would be too much,, definitely! I know how you feel, though, not like it used to be.

Debbie did the vendor tell you that the lions mane mushroom was wild picked? like did he go pick it out in the woods? if so eat with caution youdon’t want to eat a bunch of it and all at once. W?ild mushrooms you just need to eat a little and see how you react to it. Some mushrooms can give you a gut ache and the scoots. So don’t eat that whole thing, just a suggestion for eating wild edibles😘 They are delish they grow wild in your state they don’t grow up here😕

I buy wild mushrooms when in season theres guys I know who go pick them here. They told me to be careful and not eat to much at once till you know how you react to them, once I got bad stomach cramps. You also soak them in salt water to kill the bugs wild mushrooms have bugs

Thanks for that info Julie. I’ll start off with just a little. He basically just told me how to cook them and that people used them as a meat substitute. Another man said they were really good.
