OLIVE-BACKED SUNBIRD

On the way out last week, I saw this Olive-Backed Sunbird perching on the grove of Ixora 'Super Pink' and it was flitting from flower to flower.

It took me a good 5 mins or more to capture a series of photos on this beautiful subject. Now I know the flowers of the Ixora do provide nectar to this common urban bird.
