  3. A female Ornate Sunbird (Cinnyris ornatus) spotted in the garden, Singapore on 31 March 2025. It returned many times to pull threads from this padding on the tree, probably to use as nesting material.

    A very common urban bird, with high-pitched cheeps announcing its presence.

  7. A female Copper-throated Sunbird (Leptocoma calcostetha) spotted at Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve, Singapore on 23 Aug 2025. While not as dazzling as the male, the female is still a pretty good-looking bird.

  11. Happy to spot this Little Spiderhunter (Arachnothera longirostra) at Bukit Batok Nature Park, Singapore, on 13 July 2025. This uncommon resident bird is a member of the Sunbird family: its long and sharp, curved beak alerted me that this was no ordinary sunbird.

  23. Sunbirds, especially the males, are colourful and may rival the beauty of hummingbirds. One of the more colourful ones here is the Crimson Sunbird (Aethopyga siparaja) and I finally managed to get some close shots of it at Springleaf Nature Park on 1 June, 2019.

  24. An Olive-backed Sunbird (Cinnyris jugularis) spotted during last week's trip in Perak, Malaysia. It stopped on this branch just outside the garden, so I quickly took some shots before it took off again.

    Sunbirds are the nectar feeding Old World equivalent of the Hummingbirds of America.

  25. Saw the Black-throated Sunbird (Aethopyga saturata) several times during our stay at Fraser’s Hill, Malaysia. But they don’t make it easy to get shots, constantly moving about under the shade of branches while calling and feeding.

    At least this fellow was willing to stay in one place for long enough to get some shots. Taken on 18 Nov 2018.
