Same Nest? [EBB Sightings] Anna's hummer nestlings

Sue & birders:

Numerous field guides I've read, including Sheri L. Williamson's "Hummingbirds of N. Am." (Houghton Mifflin, 2001), 
mention Anna's do NOT usually use the same nest for another clutch in the following year's breeding period.

Instead, they build anew each new breeding season.

BUT, keep in mind that SOME Anna's will have a second clutch in the same breeding year.

So, it's perhaps true that Sue's nesting individual may produce a second clutch this season.
