Great timing to catch the Sunbird sipping nectar at the flower blossom, Biru. Excellent color and flight position. The blurred wing tips nicely imply motion. The square crop works well for this scene.

I like the square format style that you made here with the flowers in the complete corner and the bg is superb, nice image BIRU.
