Yellow Sunbird

I watched a documentary last night from PBS, "Nature: Birds of the Gods, " and it inspired me to try my hand at, well… Birds. The difficult part was actually trying to find an image online of this specific species. Since the documentary didn't reveal the name of this bird, I spent a decent amount of time typing random descriptors into google. You'd  be surprised how many yellow-bellied, hooked/needle beaked, nectar feeding birds there are. The end result is this: the Yellow-bellied Sunbird, a member of the Asity family, native to Madagascar.
