I took this photo at Mt. Cootha Botanical Gardens. This is a Green faced Honey eater. This bird with it's friends would keep flying away when people came near. I had to be very cautious and give off a non threatening body language so I could get very close to them while they were drinking honey from these flowers. I selected this image of this honey eater to display its face and beauty rather than an image of it drinking honey from the flowers, although I do have some amazing images of it drinking honey from these flowers also. Canon EOS 400D; Sigma 50-500mm f/4.0-6.3 EX DG HSM lens
