Welcome to the PBPF, Den. Those are nice captures of the Brown Shrike and the Olive-backed sunbird. You can post the gear and settings and the general location (no details esp. of nesting birds) in every post. It would familiarize you with the group's posting practice better if you read the guidelines in the introduction set by the moderator of the group, Mr. Romy Ocon aka KA MASTAH. We're a happy group. Feel at home. Lyd

Your olive-backed sunbird first take looks nowhere like a first take compared to my own photographs, I can tell you that. Congratulations!

Welcome Den. This is a great forum. People here are very helpful. I just start posting in April myself but have been birding for around one year. I certainly have learned a lot. The Olive-backed sunbird is a male. Nice picture. Thanks for sharing. |

We have an online photo guide and I guess it will tell you why it is male once you check the photos out. In the bird world, the male is most of the time the more colorful bird, of course there are exceptions to this as you'll learn later on when you get deeper in the hobby. |
