MattR Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 These were photographed in Nairobi, Kenya in December 2020. Photos 1, 2 and 3 are the same bird. Photos 4 and 5 were of another bird which was in the same tree - possibly a female of the first species. Any help appreciated. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

Seanbirds Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Sunbird for sure. Not sure what kind though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The female is a Bronze Sunbird, and the male very likely is the same species, but they are all pretty dark in the photos and sunbirds can be difficult to ID depending on the lighting. I think the other species they are confused with is Tacazze Sunbird, which have purple iridescence to their feathers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
