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.

This is weird. If they aren’t loaded how can they show me?

And how can I dismiss someone else’s comment? Of course I wouldn’t want to. Weird.

I just push dismiss to get the thing off of chat it takes up to much room😜I’m not sure why it shows up other than old posts are being answered from the page before?

Beyond me. I guess it is what happens when they try to program and keep the chat going at the same time.

I just checked and see that several of my posts, more than I thought, disappeared yesterday. I did say goodnight to folks, as usual, but they are not there. I hope i didn’t offend anyone. If so, i’m sorry, but i didn t do it. I think i might have not received some also. Did this happen to anyone else?

Good morning. It’s very cloudy kinda breezy and warm. We have a 60% chance of rain or a storm. They said later today so we’ll see. I went for a walk, I made Hummingbird juice and I’ve been doing some cleaning out on the patio. I also took off my fingernail polish and gave myself a little Manicure I’ll do my toes tomorrow and then my fingernails Friday How exciting Ha ha

Hi Ardyth. I didn’t realize you curled your hair. Is it wavy when you don’t curl it?

Karen my hair is straighter than a stick If I didn’t do anything to it it just lays flat on my head I use a lot of products and a curling iron and curl it every time I go out and lots of Hairspray too

I never would have guessed that. It looks so natural. Mine is straight too. 🫤 I don’t spend much time on it any more.

Good morning Bella Buds and happy day to you. We are cloudy and cooler. The north and eastern part of Ky had a lot of flooding, wind and power outages. Lexington has flooding and trees down. I’m not sure if any power outages but it must not be a lot or they would be talking about it. I think it all missed us. I don’t see any puddles out but I think we got some rain.
