Female Variable Sunbird


This, I think, is a female Variable Sunbird / Cinnyris venustus / Souimanga à ventre jaune. The male is shown here. But I just discovered that the immature looks just like the adult female, so I will probably never know. Would you believe they don't allow you to come near them and strike a conversation? The best I could do with this one was about 20 metres. This picture was taken in Agbodrafo, Togo.
