– so fast, it is back again with beautiful plumage ..

13. Plain Sunbird, 纯色食蜜鸟, 純色食蜜鳥, Anthreptes simplex, オリーブコバシタイヨウチョウ, KELICAP KELABU MELAYU

update 202411

– This is a common bird found in Malaysia’s lowland forests, but it is often overlooked because both the male and female have relatively plain appearances, except for the male’s distinctive blue or dark forehead.

– During our chit-chat session, my buddy suddenly spotted something flying in. He was thrilled to notice it before anyone else—such is the joy of birding: the excitement of discovering it yourself!

– 这是马来西亚低地森林中常见的一种鸟，但经常被忽略，因为雄鸟和雌鸟整体外观都较为普通，只有雄鸟有显眼的蓝色或深色额头。

– 在闲聊时，朋友突然看到有东西飞了进来。他兴奋地第一个发现它——这就是观鸟的乐趣：自己发现的那份喜悦！
