•  Info Hope someone can help id the plant. Feeding on Aloe zebrina. Surprising that there's only one FP of a sunbird. All by Charlersjsharp -- Charlesjsharp (talk) 16:39, 7 June 2021 (UTC)

•  Small tip: When you have a bird like this feeding on a flower, chances are it's a flower that is a regular food source for that bird. So... you do a Google picture search on the bird, "Scarlet-chested sunbird", and see if any photos of the birdie with a look-alike plant pops up. Sure enough, a bunch did, like this: Scarlet-chested sunbird (Chalcomitra senegalensis) feeding on Aloe flower. Ndutu area, Ngorongoro Conservation Area NCA / Serengeti National Park, Tanzania. Looks close enough. So you do a second search for "Aloe flower", and they look pretty much the same as in your photo. Even dear ol' Commons came up in the search with File:Aloe zebrina flower.jpg. To make sure, you can combine the searches and then you really hit the jackpot. Next time, you know how to do it yourself. --Cart (talk) 21:33, 7 June 2021 (UTC)

• It's all thanks to David Attenborough, who have taught animal-dummies like me about species-species interaction/ dependency. ;-) --Cart (talk) 15:22, 8 June 2021 (UTC)
