This photo of my (grubby, but manly) fingers show that the birds head is about the same size as a fingernail.

Any suggestions for SUITABLE names?
Has Wing and A Prayer been taken?
This kind of bird hangs out in the flowering bushes around here. Funny that I've never seen a nest.
Well, that's a start.Originally Posted by misskit

Now, put your fookin' camera away and give them a bit of peace!

Beek and Shriek?
^^ Shooting into the sun, so lighting is crap.
Posted it to show how quick the feeding scenario is - making it pretty difficult to get feeding shots in focus, especially as the nest and its contents move around when mum lands.
Which is why i've taken thoudands of really shit photos.
Mutt and Jeff...

And
Yellow Chin
Big Bird

Yellow Submarine
We have a couple of "red hot poker" bushes in the back. The birds come an drink nectar from the flowers at day break. They all look like female, i.e. no blue throat, olive top half and yellow stomachs. When they find some of the fruit has nectar they chirp to bring others. Last week I had a pair of them pirouetting around one another, amazing to watch whilst breakfasting.
If they only drink nectar is this what they feed their chicks?
A tray full of GOLD is not worth a moment in time.
