Gözlem detayları
Seen numerous times (and birds) over 3 visits to the location in December 2020. There were 4 species of Spiderhunters feeding high up on the nectar of Spathodea campanulata (African Tulip Tree) at this – all seen at each visit. 1. Long-billed Spiderhunter Arachnothera robusta robusta – 3 birds 2. Grey-breasted Spiderhunter Arachnothera modesta modesta – 2 bird 3. Spectacled Spiderhunter Arachnothera flavigaster – 2-3 birds 4. Yellow-eared Spiderhunter Arachnothera chrysogenys chrysogenys – 2 bird I am assuming nectar feeding of the Spathodea campanulata as they all dip their heads into the large flowers. However note that literature does indicate that these flowers have some toxin in the flower/nectar that kills bees and other insects. The Spathodea campanulata is an introduced plant (exotic) that is widely grown for its bright flowers. There was some competitive feeding and I noticed that the Long-billed Spiderhunter was the most timid, being chased from feeding locations by both the Grey-breasted and Spectacled Spiderhunters. The Long-billed Spiderhunter was also seen feeding on the nectar of the Bauhinia blakeana (Hong Kong Orchid Tree); another exotic plant; feeding was by fluttering to gain access to the nectar. Also seen feeding on nectar of the Syzygium grande (Sea Apple).
