Greater Double-collared Sunbird photographed in the Storms River Mouth section of Tsitikamma National Park in South Africa. There were some late blooming aloes at the exact same location as the prior year. So they were regularly visited by this species.

Great looking bird and beautiful colors and details Nate. I like the perch also but if mine, I would remove the OOF flowers on the right. Well done
