Help in identifying hummingbird seen in a garden just north of Kamloops. Bird was flying in and out of a tree to the feeder. I thought it was the same Bird, but bill looks different in the two photos attached. I thought it was a Caliope Hummingbird, but helpfrom any local expert would be appreciated.

I agree with them being different birds.

1. female Rufous - note red in tail
2. female Calliope. the gray "bill" is actually it's tongue
