The new sunbird baby on show in this post.
The father sat proudly at the top of the bottle brush tree.
I saw yesterday that there is now another pair of sunbirds busy at the same nest where this little one was born. The bottle brush tree certainly draws many of the smaller birds, as it is dense and their nests are safe in the tree.
Come and look at how she has grown.
A peaceful Sunday to all and look how beautiful this little one is.

The mom is a constant companion and here she was scratching her ear.
Many flowers will appear in Spring to offer her their nectar.
Two litte Swee Waxbills (Coccopygia melanotis) also came to have a look at the baby.
Finally just a squirrel that came to see what I was doing and he said, Hey couzin, instead of taking shots of the little chickens, rather give me a nut.
We are blessed to be friends with the neighbor, as the bottle brush tree is at the front of their house and I have a good view of it from our house.
I have posted many birds in this tree before and I also have an unobstructed view of the sunbirds low hanging nest. The nest is high enough so that the cats cannot get to it and it's low enough so that the predator birds flying over cannot see it.
Very clever and beautiful little birds.
And That's All Friends!

Beautiful Sunday and happy new month.

Thank you and totally agreed. Spring is around the corner and that babies are starting to pop out.
Hope that you guys will have a good week.
I am speechless. You always share with us amazing photos.
Why are all those birds turning the same direction?🤔 There must be something interesting at that angle😄
Hahaha, they look that way to keep an eye on me, as if I come closer they will fly.
!BEER
Haha, now I grab. They pretend to be looking somewhere else and you won't know that they are look at you!😀
Yep and that first one is looking directly at me.

Good afternoon Hannes,
I am having one of those head spinning days again. The doctor gave me new tablets and they don't agree with me. Pulse pumps around the 80 mark for the day.
So I stopped taking the things and are waiting for his call.
The birds have to grow fast here my friend for survival purposes. The baby will grow stronger over spring and become an adult in summer. Then next winter she will have her own babies.
Cheers and thanks.
Good afternoon Zac,
I hope he calls soon and that he can help you - doesn't sound good to me.

Good afternoon Hannes,
I was instructed to cancel all appointments and to stay at home this week. Unfortunately he insits that I should continue with the new tablets and stated that I will have a very tough week, until my body accepts it. Problem is that now Marian is now also not feeling well and I am more concerned about her.
I don't think it is Covid as I have had my second Pfizer vaccination, but Marian will get her second one at the beginning of September.
So yeah, times are a bit difficult here, but we will survive methinks.
Cheers and thanks.
Good afternoon Zac,
I have always been thinking that if your body feels bad when you eat something then it's not good for you. Maybe I was wrong, at least when it's about tablets and other medicine.
I do hope that the doctor is right and that it helps you and that Marian is not seriously ill and will feel better soon.
!PIZZA and !BEER - sounds like a nice dinner :)

Good afternoon Hannes,
You are right as if it's bad then stop taking whatever it is.
When I awoke at 2 am this morning I struggled to breathe and my throat was swollen. I couldn't even speak. So I took an Ibrufen tablet and the swelling has started to go away. I will now not take those new tablets anymore.
Marian is also improving and thank you for the care and the kindness my friend.
Cheers and thanks.
Good afternoon Zac,
don't you think you should listen to the doctor? Maybe he's right and your body will accept the tablets after a couple of days, but I have to admit that if I'd wake up like you did, I would also stop taking them if I knew they cause such pain.
I'm glad that Marian is feeling better and hope you will be fine again soon too.
!PIZZA and !BEER - sounds like a nice dinner :)
