Broad-tailed Hummingbird

I snapped these pictures while camping in the Rocky Mountains near Durango, Colorado. These are very aggressive birds. We bought a simple feeder to draw them into our camp. As a species the Broad-tailed is very similar to the Rufous Hummingbird. Though these photos don't show it, they do have exceptionally broad tails when fanned out.
