The newest bird on the block

satchitananda · Feb 2, 2012

Dearies, can't imagine I am in such luck. Here is another little bird. The distance and the magnification required made it hard to get a very sharp picture. The image is somewhat grainy, but never mind.

I am told this a purple sunbird.
And here is the video link to hear its chirp. :-D

Hi Satchi.....
What a cheerful little soul it is.......!!!
I always love little cuties like these....sparrows, chickadees,bulbuls,wag tails,sun birds and humming birds......more than the exotic birdies.....
Loved the pic and video....it was constantly grooming itself and singing all through......a good multi tasker indeed...!!!!
