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.

Laundry done, washed dishes, stove cleaned. Chuck had a meeting with the Director at 9a; he left at 8.55a 😘 I’ll probably go around 2.30-3p — so nice to just pop over. 🤗

Good afternoon Pam I know you are happy to see Rick nearby and I hope you have a good visit. Since the place doesn’t have a pharmacy, I suppose Chuck will handle deliver the meds. Will Rick and/or Chuck be responsible for administering the meds or will they be turned over to the nursing staff? I sure hope Rick likes this place and the food is good. Will he be able to make home visits? I hope things go well. Huhs dear Pam for you and family. Bet you are looking forward to seeing Kitty.

Hi Debbie, glad you survived today’s “activities” and are home safe.
Rick knows how to take his meds; staff are back up. Not sure about the food, Chuck came home to make/bring Rick a PB&J 😋

I knew Rick had been doing his own meds and I’m glad he still does. Rick was quite specific what he wants. Can’t beat a good PB&J.

I know they are high in sugar so I don’t buy or eat them, if I bought a bag I would eat the whole thing at once😂

Pam does Rick have a fridge in his room? if so you can put snacks in there for Rick to snack on during the day or night. Do they have him standing?

That is so great that Rick is so close — almost unheard of. Especially in a small town. Quite a blessing. 🙏

Good barely still morning Bella Buds. I’m all done. Jo ran in Walmart looking to see if they have a leather key chain. Hers broke. I did good, didn’t have to wait long. I have just a little Barrett’s and he removed one polyp. There were others but he said they were small. Depending on pathology I can probably go 5 years before another scope.
Pam enjoy your visit with Rick. When did you say Kitty was coming? Will she stay awhile?
Hope everyone is having a good day or as good as possible.

Me too, I usually get my shots in August because the Flu and such starts earlier than other places.

Hi Julie, your ‘shot season’ does start early; ours is about mid-Sept.

We have a lot of airports and people fly when they are sick and they spread it, always break outs of something after holidays

We didn’t get any food in Somerset. We could have but I had some left over roast beef that needed to be eaten at home and some Bob Evans potatoes. Enough for lunch, then supper will be my Chinese. I got good stuff this time that I like better. I’m gotta enjoy it.
