The sunbirds are a group of very small Old World passerine birds which feed largely on nectar, although they will also take insects, especially when feeding young. Their flight is fast and direct on their short wings. Most species can take nectar by hovering, but usually perch to feed most of the time.

Colaptes rubiginosus
(Golden-olive woodpecker / Carpintero verdidorado)
The golden-olive woodpecker (Colaptes rubiginosus) is a resident breeding bird from Mexico south and east to Guyana, northwest Argentina, Trinidad and Tobago. It was formerly placed in the genus Piculus. The scientific name rubiginosus means "full of rust", describing the color of the bird's wings and back.
The habitat of this woodpecker is forests, more open woodland, and cultivation. It is most common in the mountains. Due to its habitat—mainly montane forest, separated by large rivers—it has evolved into about 20 subspecies. Andean birds show a pale eyering.
Golden-olive woodpeckers mainly eat insects, including ants and beetle larvae, with some fruit and berries.

So there you go, oh
Can't make a wife out of a ho, oh
I'll never find the words to say I'm sorry
But I'm scared to be alone
You cut out a piece of me, and now I bleed internally
Left here without you (no, no, no), without you (ooh, ooh)
And it hurts for me to think about what life could possibly be like
Without you (no, no, no), without you (no, no)

"with their honeyed heaviness, their lush trembling,
their eagerness
to be wild and perfect for a moment, before they are
nothing, forever?"
This tiny bird stopped by to sip honey from the flowers . Enough time for me to grab my camera and click !
Was down at the Botanic Garden this morning shooting our winter visitors - the Common Kingfisher and Crake. Managed to grab a few shots of the native Sunbird.
Thank you my friends for popping by.
I really appreciate your visits, comments & favourites.
Wishing all my Flickr friends a beautiful weekend.
Thank you

Often seen posed high up in dead trees and showing off the white stripe that runs from the chin to the botttom of the belly, this Olive-sided Flycatcher was a lifer find for me. My bird guides indicates It ranges across North America and often prefers bogs and marshy areas.

We encountered these Olive-throated Parakeets as we were departing a small restaurant where we enjoyed a delicious lunch of gar fish. Thankfully we were prepared with our cameras ready because the parakeets didn’t hang around for long.
We will be doing this trip again next spring, if you think you might be interested more information is available here: www.texastargetbirds.com/group-photo-trips/2018-costa-ric...

Eupsittula nana
I could use some help with identy of this one. I believe this is an Olive-Backed Oriole, but if someone could confirm this, it would be great. Found at the Rex Smeal Park in Port Douglas, Qld.
125) Olive-Backed Sunbird
Olive-backed sunbird, Cinnyris jugularis, Kelicap Bukit
Also known as the yellow-bellied sunbird, is a species of sunbird found from Southern Asia to SouthEast Asia to Australia. Feed largely on nectar, although they will also take insects, especially when feeding young. Their flight is fast and direct on their short wings. Most species can take nectar by hovering, but usually perch to feed most of the time. Originally from mangrove habitat, the olive-backed sunbird has adapted well to humans, and is now common even in fairly densely populated areas, even forming their nests near human homes.
In april of this year, SM42-517 has gotten its repair done by ASO SPS. Since then it runs for the servicing company, though not very often, only occasionally doing special tasks.
On December the 7th of 2025 the engine was attached as a pusher onto a loaded train of 22 grain carriages, which were bound for Kretki for unloading. At the siding in Kretki there is a large processing facility, which produces feed out of soybean and rapeseed. At the front of the train was SU42-510, also a retro-painted engine, albeit with modern headlights and a slightly less attractive colour scheme.
One of the spots, where we decided to take a picture was just before Skępe. We were stood on a viaduct above the tracks and got reported to the authorities, for acting suspiciously. The police arrived right as the train was passing us, but the controll luckily went very smoothly. We were kind of afraid, because, the situation with photography in Poland has gotten way worse, but the policemen had zero problems with that :).

Symbol of peace, love and loyalty.
The Olive tree takes a long time to grow, but can live to be several hundred years old.
Some here are very old, exact numbers are not known, but it is believed that the small island of Thasos cultivates over 1.2 million olive trees and has wild trees.
