Purple Sunbird

In the last week and a half, I've noticed hundreds of butterflies and beetles. The temperatures have risen to about 30C and, if I remember correctly, as the seasons change, a lot of migratory birds and insects pass through in the spring and fall.

Although the purple sunbird is not migratory, I had not seen one although a number of colleagues have. Then, last Friday, I was looking at all the butterflies and I saw two purple sunbirds. They are a little shy and I will need to go out looking for them again this week in the morning. Their color is beautiful.
