Are those Rufous hummers? OMG they are GORGEOUS!!!

I was excited Sunday to see an American Goldfinch still hanging around who had his breeding plumage. Seems like I never get to see them in full glory around here. They leave just when you guys in the more Northern states start posting pics of them "all dressed up." I was really enjoying seeing him like that and snapping some pics, when Mr. Lesser Goldfinch showed up to defend "his" feeder, and a small tussel ensued. I wish this pic were in sharper focus, but I like it anyway.
