Greater double-collared sunbird Finally I got to see one! My garden is filled with Southern double-collard sunbirds, but a trip to a friends house and joy of joys, a Greater!<br />
The difference between the two is that the Greater is somewhat large, has a heavier bill and a broader red stripe. Geotagged,South Africa,Spring,cinnyria afer,double-collared sunbirds,greater double-collared sunbird,south africa,sunbirds Click/tap to enlarge Promoted
