I have been hoping to spot this one since I was told that it had been seen. The Yellow-vented Flowerpecker is an unexpected find as it is normally confined to forest or forest edge (and this brings the total number of species sighted todate in the taman to 90). And when I spotted it, unfortunately it kept very much to the upper canopy. Nevertheless it's gratifying to know that it's still around, and here's hoping to get better shots when I next sight it.
Unfortunately the orangey-yellow vent is hardly visible here, and so too its yellowish-olive upper-part due to this belly only image, but the bold blackish streaks on its underpart are unmistakable.
