About this episode
This is Episode 81. It’s all about birds in the family Nectariniidae. These are the sunbirds and the spiderhunters.
If you live in or have gone birding in places like Africa, India, Southeast Asia, or Indonesia, you’re probably familiar with sunbirds. Consider yourself lucky.
But if you have no idea what a sunbird or a spiderhunter is, or if you have only a vague idea, I’m excited to introduce you to this group of wonderful birds today.
