About These Birds
Bates's Sunbird
Bates's Sunbird is a small, iridescent sunbird found in the lowland rainforests of West and Central Africa, particularly in Cameroon and Gabon. Males display metallic green and purple plumage with a bright breast band, while females are duller olive-brown. It feeds primarily on nectar from forest flowers and small insects, probing blooms with its curved bill.
