[cobirds] Hummingbirds in Douglas County

Noticing the posts on Hummingbirds, since early last week this has been the year with the greatest number of hummingbirds we have ever had except no Black-chinned yet.  We have broad-tailed all summer; two weeks ago we started seeing calliope.  Now we have numerous Rufus, mostly males but some females and/or juveniles.   This morning, I saw one feeder had Rufus-male & female; male & female Calliope; and male & female Broadtails all fighting over a few slots.
