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.

those are different pages, so previous means the pages before this not previous comments, all you would have to do is refresh at the top of the page and it should bring you back to here or go to the cam hub (main cam page) and come back in here and you will be back where you want to be

Hey Debbie. Took 3 .minutes for your post to show up as new on my board. I didn’t want to interfere with Julie and HNF, so I’ve been waiting to post. I was in bed until about 5:00 PM!!! I was up until 10 am this morning, playing nurse. Do you think I can post at the top now?

I think so Karen and tell us how you and your husband are. I know you had a horrible night. I’m sorry. I don’t know what it is about your husband’s feet. He is a diabetic right? Seems he should wear shoes all the time to help protect his feet.

Posting is going smoothly for me. Now I don’t have the ball on the side telling how many new comments. I had it this morning. I did like the bigger bell and how it would take me to each comment.

you should not have to use that and its going to disappear soon. you should just have more comments load as you scroll if that is not happening let me know. You really should not even being seeing that unless you are scrolling super fast to the bottom. Even then it should load the comments after a second or two…

depending on your internet connection you can scroll fast as possible and never see the bottom until either your finger gets sore or there are no comments left. If your internet is slower sometimes you will see the bottom but it should still load more comments. 👍🏻

Everything has worked for me except I still have to log in a lot of the time. I used to be able to go months without logging in. It isn’t a big deal, just an extra step.

Here’s a cool picture of a chicken that looks like a monarch butterfly. Tracy sent this to me today from the fair in Michigan. She said I could post it over here

Gorgeous markings! Wonder what the eggshells look like; white chickens=white eggs, brown chickens=brown eggs. 🐓

The comments should load as you scroll. Is that not happening for you?
