A goldfinch stopped by my hummingbird "garden" this morning. The cardinal flowers are starting to bloom just as the bee balms are well past their prime. Based on my observation, the bee balms (red ones) and the cardinal flowers are most sought after by the resident hummers.

Though my Cardinal flowers didn't take.
The Major Wheeler is climbing like a weed though... Don't know if it will produce flowers this year or not.
Planted honeysuckle....not thriving at all, but not dying either. Maybe our acid soil the rhodos love so much is not honeysuckle friendly.
A1+1.4TC+200600 for 840. The combo lived on my a9, now living on the A1.

These photos look really great and Great job panning with the subjects, which are in perfect focus...nice and crisp. Colors look fantastic as well
Thanks!
I’m also liking the colors coming out of the A1. Very accurate, yet nice and punchy. I find I have to do a lot less tweaking in post with the A1.
Looks great! How do you feel about the 1.4tc with 200-600 on the A1? So far I find the 1.4tc to work extremely well...no real complaints from me - but some others on here aren't as pleased. I find both sharpness and AF take a negligible hit ..not easily noticable. Take care
