    Here’s a little birdo that comes to visit. Not often but did today.

    No idea what it is but it hovers ever so gracefully for the nectar. Loves the red flowers.

      I love these little dudes, they’re so beautiful when they’re perched sideways or even upside down sometimes drinking nectar from the long-necked flowers.

      Googled ‘brown and yellow bird long beak nectar’… Might be an Eastern Spinebill?

        Yes. I love these 🙂, they come and sip from the orchids on my balcony. I have been trying to get pics but they are too quick .

        but it’s not the bird in the pic.

        Those are much bigger and bright yellow and black. Don’t know the one in the pic.
