20th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
The Nectar Sucker Red-Winged Starling

The African winter is a time for Aloe bloom. Lots of birds came to suck the sweet nectar including this beautiful Red-winged Starling. I was waiting for a moment, when I was able to see the color of the wings too. The yellow color of the Aloe flower and the Red-winged Starling was eye catching.
