Brian,
Actually looks like our biggest push was about 2-3 wks ago, and we’re now down to about two of each, Black-chin and Rufous….
Our salvias, agastache, fireweed, and others are at peak bloom and we’re halfway expecting an Anna’s…..
Hummers have been concentrated in our volunteer sunflower forest, grabbing insects between licks of sugar-water =)

Like Peggy’s report from Idaho Falls, west of Blackfoot, I’ve only had a single female Black-chinned visiting the feeder. Went fly-fishing on Henry’s Fk this weekend & yest, on my return, my hummingbird feeder had hardly dropped. Saw a female Black-chinned about 6 PM Sun.
Seems as if the west side of the state has a rush coming through now, as per Larry’s report. My largest numbers about 3 wks ago were Rufous, followed by Calliope.
