hi,

I'm interesting to know if in some of your gardens in South Africa (or in other places) sunbirds are usually visitors of your Digitalis (foxglove) flowers for nectar in yours garden

I know that hummingbirds visit these flowers when the plant is introduced in North American...and maybe the other specialist nectar feeding birds in Africa (Nectariinidae) could be the same

thank you
