Mom always tells me that she have been seeing sunbirds in our neighbor's garden. I patiently waited by my window during the past weekends and I was fortunate to see them finally. The photos of the mature olive-backed sunbirds are not so good because of our jalousies. What I have here are the juvenile birds. Olive-Backed Sunbirds 500mm, f/6.3, 1/80 sec., ISO-400  500mm, f/6.3, 1/80 sec., ISO-400  500mm, f/6.3, 1/80 sec., ISO-400  500mm, f/6.3, 1/80 sec., ISO-400  500mm, f/6.3, 1/80 sec., ISO-400  500mm, f/6.3, 1/80 sec., ISO-400  |

Great shots! Were the first 2 taken later than the others? Or have they been developing at different rates?

Or have they been developing at different rates? thank you, kuya des! the first two were taken at latter time. i just don't know if i was able to photograph the sunbirds as they developed. however, it seems to me that they are different from each other. mom told me that she was able to see at least three pairs before i was able to take these shots. |

The blossoms of this plant attracts the Sunbird. The first time I saw this plant with Sunbirds was in Coron. It looks like its from the banana family but does not bear any fruit. It is nice & convenient to have a tree like that in your garden to take pictures of the birds. Nicely done Mark & Mabuhay.

It is nice & convenient to have a tree like that in your garden to take pictures of the birds. Nicely done Mark & Mabuhay. i think i was inspired with a shot of a scarlet-breasted sunbird perched on the blossom of a banana. i just can't remember whose photo is it. when mom told me that she saw sunbirds in the garden, i readily suspected that they were attracted to the blossom. good thing that i was able to chance upon them. they normally goes to the blossom during the time i'm in the office. thank you for appreciating, kuya ely! |
