The Origin

Give me a chance and I would probably associate myself with any animal or bird on this Earth. I am yet to find any spicy that i find repulsive. There are strengths in all and beauty in all.

Why did i choose this name for my blog - read the text below and you would probably know a bit about me.

"SUN-BIRD, a name more or less in use for many years,' and now generally accepted as that of a group of species of small birds, but when or by whom it was first applied is uncertain. They inhabit the Ethiopian, Indian, and Australian regions, and, with some notable exceptions, the species mostly have but a limited range. They are so called by the natives of Asia in allusion to their splendid and shining plumage, but gives no hint as to the nation or language wherein the name originated.

Though part of the plumage in many sun-birds gleams with metallic luster, they owe much of their beauty to feathers which are not lustrous, though almost as vivid,' and the most wonderful combination of the brightest colors - scarlet, purple, blue, green and yellow - is often seen in one and the same bird. Graceful in form and active in motion, sun-birds flit from flower to flower, feeding on small insects which are attracted by the nectar and on the nectar itself; but this is usually done while perched and rarely on the wing as is the habit of humming-birds."
