I may be projecting here because I'm thrilled to be able to go to one of my local parks to take shots of Hummingbirds!

The only difference between an Allen's and a Rufous Hummingbird is a small notch on one of the tail feathers. So it's really difficult to tell the difference between the two.
I really can't see the notch, but I'm calling this a Rufous based on the colors I saw, but I really think it's an Allen's!
What do you think?
