Dear Friend,
           If you are interested in Sunbirds and butterflies,you may plant Calliandra in your garden.The flowers of this plant attract Sunbirs,butterflies,honey beesand types of wasps.In case you don't have space in the house to plant calliandra,visit a park where this plant is there and enjoy nature in action.
  Attaching an image where male of a Purple Sunbird is eating nectar from Calliandra.You can see Bulbuls and White eyes on these flowers.
