Yellow-bellied Sunbird - nectarinia jugularis

Absolutely stunning photo!

Thanks Tasteyg. I just captured this yesterday and it's one of my favourites not only because they're so hard to get but I love the position of her little feet - one is high up and the other down balancing beautifully on the bloom!

wow shes beautiful

Great photo Bernieh,what a beautiful little bird...

Thats a brilliant shot Berhieh.......Lovely bird

Agree...great shot of a beautiful bird

Gone into my favourites, beautiful.

Yes thanks all. We see this particular bird almost every day - but they are fast little fellows and hard to capture. Got lucky this time.

Lovely colours on this Sunbird.
And what a beak ! :o)

Great photo of the Sunbird, I don't think I've seen this bird before!

I take lots of photos of these little guys because they are so quick - and most turn out to be rubbish - but occasionally I get lucky!

Bernieh:

Yes, this is a beautiful bird and photo. Very clear!

It looks similar to the Orioles that nest under the bottom of my
banana leaves.
