Southern double-collared sunbird

Working at my outdoor office whenever I can, means the cats (read Missy) can play outside to her heart's content. The older cats love lying behind my laptop while Skabby lies at my feet. 

Of course, with my camera to hand on my desk, I'm able to snap the various birds which land in the garden shrubs. A resident bird, is the Southern Double-Collared Sunbird. At the moment I am getting many images of the female of this species..






I'm linking to Saturday Critters here

May you all stay safe and healthy.

HAPPY SATURDAY TO YOU ALL
