Quite a while ago in a bookstore I read in a book that Anna's Hummingbirds did not arrive in the Bay Area/Silicon Valley (or was it even California?) before the 1950s. It would make sense if you consider that their main nectar source here are garden or other landscaping flowers and eucalyptus trees, apart from feeders of course, and I do not think that these have been here long before. Although I do not know enough about the natural flora around here to be sure. Does anyone know if this is true? And if it is, what has been the natural habitat of Anna's?
Thank you very much!
