A little Double Collared Sunbird....

taking a drink. It has been unusually warm and there were many thirsty birds around. The bottle gets filled with sugar water and a few drops of red food colouring.

@30pics4jackiesdiamond @merrelyn As they are nectar drinkers, they are only attracted to something red or colourful for some reason. I sometimes use beetroot juice in the sugar water. They simply ignore the bottle otherwise ;-)
