Cinnyris afer, Greater Double-collared Sunbird. Breeds in southern South Africa. Mainly resident, but partly migratory in the northeast of its range. Common in gardens, fynbos, forest edges and coastal scrub. It lives mainly on nectar from flowers, but takes some fruit, and, especially when feeding young, insects and spiders. It has the habit of hovering in front of webs to extract spiders. It gives a wheezy, repeated grating “skeet” call and a high-pitched song of up-and-down notes.
