After lots of patience waiting, almost in vane, I finally managed to get some decent pics of the juvenile goldfinch bathing on our pond fountain.
The set up was my DSLR on a tripod, with the Sigma 150-600, I was able to operate the camera remotely from the kitchen, using the camera Wi-Fi connected to my mobile phone.
Do I or don't I go and have a splash?
There are some more of the juvenile goldfinch on the fountain in my June Album
Lovely photos and to see the young Goldfinch enjoying the pond fountain area; they certainly need to cool off this heatwave !

I was more than fascinated watching the goldfinch.
Incidentally, we have two juvenile goldfinches (see included garden cam image) that take it in turns to bathe on the fountain, along with a male blackbird and possibly a thrush, but I've yet to get clear pics of those.
