Not a species we see very often in the Gallery and this is one beautiful closeup.

What a wonderful find for you Marko.... we don't see this one coming in here too often.

What a great picture you've taken of this sugarbird too - very well done lad. It's so lovely to see you posting again.

A beautifully lit portrait of this lovely bird, Marko. I think it should be Sugarbird though - not with an e. :)
