Purple Sunbird

Miniature Bird Sculpture – Purple Sunbird

Got the 360 view going on this one! Not sure why these birds are named purple sunbirds, they all look blue to me – so I made him blue ;0)

“Like other sunbirds they feed mainly on nectar, although they will also take insects, especially when feeding young. They have a fast and direct flight and can take nectar by hovering like a hummingbird but often perch at the base of flowers.”
