Sunbird In My Pergola

Last year, during Christmas some birds tried to make a nest on our Christmas lights in our garden but were unsuccessful.

Then in April this year a little yellow bird flew into our garden and built a nest on one of the beams of our pergola. The nest resembled one of the many wind chimes we have in the garden.

We found out from the internet this little yellow bird is an Olive-backed sunbird. The female sunbird was yellow but the male sunbird was a little bigger and its upper body was blue.

Well, we missed the hatching of the eggs as we went away on holiday.

My father in-law believes that these birds would bring good luck as they make their nest in our homes. I believe it’s God’s way of reminding me that He is able to meet our needs and we need not worry.

Matt 6:26
Look at the birds in the sky! They don't plant or harvest. They don't even store grain in barns. Yet your Father in heaven takes care of them. Aren't you worth more than birds?

Once again, couple of weeks ago, another set of sunbird made this abandon nest their home. This time round, I was determined to capture everything on video. So here’s the first part of it….the flying in & out of its nest.

Do join me later and see what we can learn from this amazing wonder of God’s creation!
