Aww, come on, QD. They want to join you for a cool drink in the A/C.
For sure. Can't recall being out at 110° before yesterday. Mostly lurked inside. They are welcome to the water and birdseed. They have to stay out 'cause they can't be housebroken!

Really nice and sharp. A little about the procedure please. Do you use a polarizer, do you rest the lens hood against the glass.

Thanks! Aperture, F11 @1/320th, picture control Vivid. Free standing, Hand held. I always have a protective clear filter and lens hood on. No Polarizer. Cropped slightly to emphasize the bird. I shoot through the glass only when there is no other option. Most of the time they are decent - once in a while like this. The same settings but better light so 1/1250th.

Goldfinch again, same bush. Temps cranking toward a near record, so lurking indoors. D7200 AF S Nikkor 200-5-- 1:5.6 E ED with T 14 E II on. Through the glass.

More nice photos QD. Still haven't ID'ed the plant?
It looks like a catnip plant which has gone to seed
