Greater Double-collared Sunbird (right) is less common and more localized than its smaller cousin. In 1996, several pipit specimens were collected for DNA analysis and it turned out that there was not one, but two new species to science in this sample!

This species is a southern African endemic, restricted to, but fortunately not uncommon, in dry woodland and sand forest habitats of northern Zululand, Swaziland, scattered pockets of north-eastern South Africa and southern Mozambique. Definitely my personal favorite of Africa’s pink birds is the delicate Pink-throated Twinspot.
