Back to photostream

in to the fynbos

the western cape is maybe the most beautiful region of one of the most beautiful contries in the whole world,

South Africa.

i was in a little paradise called Rooi Els looking for a rockjumper.i failed to photograph it,just saw at distance.

as consolation prize i got another beauty,

the orange breasted sunbird (anthobaphes violacea)

sunbirds are mainly nectar feeder but eat also insects and spiders.the tipical habitat of this bird is the fynbos,

a shrubland vegetation that can be found along the coast and some mountains of the southern part of africa.
