Hi
Im a Slaty Flowerpiercer and I like to eat flowers - yum
I am really fond of these Leonitis blooms. I dont show myself very often, as most of the time I run around inside the hedge, but just for you, I
thought I'd let you get one picture.

Hope you like, thought it most appropriate to keep a lot of these lovely flowers in the shot; these guys are very fast
and inconspicuously go about their feeding. The bill is totally adapted to ripping open the base of the flowers.
