[cobirds] Hummers, NW Custer County

COBirders--  After several days observing the feeders at our cabin (9200 ft., Sangre de Cristo range) my impression is:  Broad-tailed numbers are somewhat below normal, with fewer juvies; Rufous population about normal, behavior also; Calliope numbers about 25% to 30% above normal.  Of course, the latter make us happy!  We have fed almost 40 pounds of sugar so far this season.
