Olive-Back Sunbird nesting 2

This nest was built by the previous sunbird in Jan this year. After the 1st fledging of chick in end of Feb, a 2nd pair of sunbirds came to lay egg but the chick died due to unknown reason. In April, another pair of sunbirds came to use the nest again. To my surprised , in early month of may, I saw 2 chicks popping out to feed. After 1 and half weeks of constant and non-stop feeding from both the parents,  the 2 chicks finally fledge this morning!

Here are the compilation video and some of the photos of the nesting.
