EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this delightful snapshot captured in Bundala National Park, Sri Lanka, we witness a curious and confident female Purple Sunbird investigating her own reflection in a car wing mirror. With vibrant plumage shimmering under the tropical sun, she seems to be asking herself: "Am I not the most beautiful bird of them all?". As she perches gracefully on the vehicle's side mirror, our feathered friend appears captivated by her own image. Perhaps she is checking if every strand of her iridescent purple feathers is perfectly aligned or ensuring that her slender beak is ready for another sip of sweet nectar. This enchanting encounter between nature and technology showcases how even birds can't resist their own allure when presented with an opportunity for self-reflection. It reminds us that vanity knows no bounds - whether you're human or avian! So next time you spot a Purple Sunbird near your car mirror, don't be surprised if it takes a moment to admire its stunning beauty. After all, who can blame these magnificent creatures for wanting to bask in their own glory?
