This bird feeds on flower nectar, so it visits blooming plants often. It also eats small insects, especially when feeding its chicks.
How does it behave?
The sunbird is very active and curious. It flies quickly from flower to flower, sometimes hovering in the air like a hummingbird. It builds a small hanging nest from twigs or cloth, usually hidden in a bush or on a balcony.
