SUNBIRD
Sunbirds are cute little twittering birds with long curved beaks to suck nectar from flowers. They can even hang upside down holding on to a flower while they put their beaks inside! Male sunbirds have very glossy feathers. They shine in many colours especially in the breeding season. the female is paler than the male. They build their nests hanging from a tree out of fibres and thin dried grass. Sunbird are called so because they shine in the sun in brilliant colours.
