    This bird is also present in our town, they have this different kind of nest hanging in our tree and they often feed on nectar of flowers in our gardens..

    OMG!!!! Majestic. I can imagine how thrilling it must have been to be able to see the Philippine eagle close enough to photograph it in flight. WOW.

    Thanks Angelo. The one you’re seeing in your garden is a relative of this Apo Sunbird. We have several kinds of sunbird, but this Apo Sunbird can be found in Mindanao only. Maybe the one from your garden is an Olive-backed Sunbird? Check out this picture here.
