Despite living in a bustling metropolis, I am fortunate to have a few large trees near my window. I was surprised to notice the varieties of birds that frequent this green haven. I guess - given their dwindling options - these trees held appeal ...
One of the first early morning visitors - was this female Purple Sunbird .. While the male is deep purple, the female is yellowish in color. I found the sharp beak intriguing, and soon had the opportunity to watch it fluff its feathers for a good few minutes! Here is it - all done after a good fluffing/cleaning... As soon as it deemed itself sufficiently clean - off it flew into the green leaves.
