I live in Oakland off of 580 near Mills College, in Maxwell Park - and this year we’ve had a pair coming regularly to our hummingbird feeders much more than in prior years, and some years we don’t see them at all. Today they visited both our feeders multiple times! I have no idea where they are nesting though, but it must be close by.
