Hedydipna collaris - Collared Sunbird

    comments (1)

  1. Based on the extensive purple collar, purple iridescence on the forehead and fairly long and curved bill, I think this is a Variable Sunbird (Cinnyris venustus)? Posted 2 years ago

The Collared Sunbird, Hedydipna collaris, is a sunbird. The sunbirds are a group of very small Old World passerine birds which feed largely on nectar, although they will also take insects, especially when feeding young. Collared Sunbird is in fact mainly insectivorous.
