A male fork-tailed sunbird was captured on camera on Wednesday foraging on nectar in Yichang City in central China's Hubei Province.
Males of the nectar-feeding species are identified by their dark olive iridescent mantle, yellow rump and crimson throat, while females are smaller in size and plainer in color.
