Becoming 'friends'

This Sunbird comes to the Mango tree every day a few times a day and is getting used to seeing me... he comes closer [and allows me to approach a foot or two closer than ever before].
He came perched on this branch chirping, and looked directly at me taking photographs. I was shooting into the sun directly, and therefore used a fill-flash. The flash did not seem to bother the Sunbird. Will they be feeding from my hands next? High-hopes!

Purple Rumped Sunbird - Leptocoma zeylonica.
