I've never been much of a bird watcher, but we have so many beautiful species here in the Solomons! The mangos are ripe and delicious (and falling on our tin roof exploding like a bomb in the middle of the night!) and the cardinal lories fight and scream and throw fits to get to the best fruit.
SITAG recently acquired a copy of Birds of Melanesia, a beautiful book that we've been using to help us identify birds like these cute little olive backed sunbirds. A large group of them were hanging out on the fence in front of our house and just talking up a storm. We may yet turn into birdwatchers!
