While taking a break from driving I stopped at the Bosque del Apache, where there are always hummers and depending on the time of year, other birds. These little birds will entertain you for hours. Some of the hummers, I can identify, but some I'm not sure of. If you can help it would be greatly appreciated.
Most of the pictures were shot at 1/1000 @ f:5.6 - 6.3 with my 100-400 f:4.0 Canon lens and Canon XTi - ISO 400. It was late in the evening and the light was starting to fail.

Thank you for the thumbs up. I was adding photos and was going to see which I like and cut down on the number of posts, but time ran out. I guess I should have read the rules a little closer.

The fifth photo, the brown bird is a rufus.

They all look like Rufous hummers to me except for the last two. Those are Black-chinned.

Actually there are a couple that are broad-tailed and one that is a Costa's in the bunch. When I get time I'm going to have to sit down and identify them all. The ranger at the Vistor's Center said that he had seen a couple of Calliope hummers earlier in the day.

I'll be interested in the identifications. We've "hosted" wintering hummers in our yard a number of times..a Broad-tailed, Buff-bellied, Rufous and Black-chinned, but I've never seen a Costa's or Calliope. Would certainly like to though.
