That first little sunbird is funny, checking out the inside of the car and the mirror. Guess she had to make sure she looks good!
Wow, that male malachite sunbird is really pretty! Sounds like those protea flowers are dong their job. They sure are odd looking buds, more like a cactus or a thistle. The flowers have that thistle like appearance too, but much prettier than most thistles I've seen! They must produce some very tempting nectar to those sunbirds. Are the sunbirds attracted to color like hummingbirds? Hummingbirds will only visit flowers that are colored, the white flowers on my citrus trees are completely ignored. Apparently it's the color that attracts...
You are right, you have to take time to laugh even when there isn't much to laugh about. A feeling I know all too well! I do hope your charity is managing to raise some funds so you can do the most good possible. Keep up the great work, another great post as always. I always look forward to them! Have another tip to build up your HSBI votes!

That is the problem, as the birds fight with their reflections because they don't know that is themselves that they see.
If you want to see the flowers of those thistles, then simply Google, "Protea Pincushion Flowers", and I bet that you will be mightily impressed. The sunbirds favor red-, yellow- and orange-colored flowers, as they seem to have more nectar. I have never seen sunbirds on our lemon tree's blossoms, and I think that there is no nectar in the blossoms.
People don't realize how many health properties there are in laughter, and I have recently discovered it. Keep an eye on my posts, as I will do a post about it soon. Nothing yet, as our economy is in the dumps, and many charities fight for a slice of the donations pie. So, it is tough competition, and I have no expectations. We will just continue to do with what we have.
Thank you for the kind HSBI gifts, as it is much needed :)
Blessings.
