Summary[edit]

Description

There were a few of these playing in the morning sun and the partner flew away as soon it saw me. This one gingerly rested and kept calling for its female partner to come back. Note the tiny line between the beaks - its the bird's tongue which it uses to dip into the nectar of the flowers.

Thanks in advance for your views and comments. Much appreciated.
