A warm 52°F for my morning walk. After that I ate a gift grapefruit for breakfast, read my usual forums & journals, then went for another short walk. I put the 70 - 200mm lens on the D850, and sat outside waiting for a hummingbird. A bunch of bees as well as a Verdin stopped by the feeder for a drink, and later a chipmunk ran around the area. Finally, a hummingbird showed up, although it never got in a good position for a photo.

A bit later the hummingbird came back and spent more time posing. According to iBird's Photo Sleuth, it is a Costa's Hummingbird.

Not much else for the day.
Dinner was a grilled chicken leg quarter, a baked potato & snap peas.
