Little Spiderhunter (Arachnothera longirostra)
About the Little Spiderhunter
The little spiderhunter (Arachnothera longirostra) is a species of long-billed nectar-feeding bird in the family Nectariniidae found in the moist forests of South and Southeast Asia. Unlike typical sunbirds, males and females are very similar in plumage. They are usually seen in ones or twos and frequently make a tzeck call. They are most often found near flowering plants where they obtain nectar.

As soon as someone uploads a freely licensed recording, we mirror it and the player appears here.
