Had one in my garden on Saturday it was like a humming bird around the flowering shrubs.

Wow! That makes three.

(Could have been a female sunbird, of course)

Great story, particularly since we usually hear about species declining or going extinct. It is always surprising to me when you hear such a story about a bird because it seems there are so many birdwatchers inspecting every corner of the earth. How it could have been missed for so many years is amazing, but good that it has been found again.
