Not My Usual Hummingbirds

I'm trying to get shots of the little birds in action and was pleased to see this one feeding in the Bottle Brush.

Very nice Vicky. You are so lucky to have hummers in your country
Thank you Adicus. I think the Bottle Brush (Calistemon) is native to Australia. All you need are a few of these to go with the plants at least in a zoo aviary.

We have heaps of bottlebrushes in NZ just no Hummingbirds
I don't know what I was thinking. I misread your location. I think bottlebrush is common to many areas. It's a pretty plant and loved by bees as well as hummingbirds.
My husband has been almost commuting to NZ (lately to Wellington), but I've only been to the north island - once. I'd like to go again and explore the south island. What I saw was beautiful.
