Call of the Red-keeled Flowerpecker

On account of its tiny size (4 inches total length), skittishness, and the fact that it ranges only in the Philippines, this microbird is challenging to film well. I got lucky this morning to be able to capture it in the open, as well as record its high-pitched call.
