As the sunflowers finish blooming and go to seed, photographers transition from flowers to birds.

Pretty neat, Stan, I like the perch and how you included the sunflower in the background.

How cute standing on the sunflower leaf. Perfect for a Goldfinch. I love the yellow background too. Wonder if a crop just to the top of the bottom blurry leaf would be even better-sunflower would still show. Everything else is so beautifully crisp. A really appealing photo!

Lovely shot Stan, just a shame the flower is so ratty! Love the sunflower 'halo' behind the GF.

Thanks Carol.
Well the birds don't come around that much until the flower drops it head to disperse the seeds.
