Common Name : Plain-throated Sunbird Bird Family : Nectariniini - Sunbirds & spiderhunters Bird Group : PASSERIFORMES Red Data Status : Unspecified Remarks : The latest brood of Brown-throated Sunbirds in our garden. Here is the eclipse male developing adult plumage. So intent on feeding on the nectar of the coral tree that he can afford to ignore me. The head is full of pollen grains from feeding – a fertilisation gift to flowers. - Amar Taxonomic Notes : Select an image: 1. Brown-throated Sunbird >> Eclipse male 2.
