Northern Double-collared Sunbird from Buhoma, Southwest Uganda.
The species in my last three pictures are very similar but told from each other with small differences like presence of thin upper-breast band, color of belly, length of bill etc.

Hundreds, maybe thousands of Common Guillemots are currently breeding in the Isle of May Nature Reserve offshore Edinburgh, Scotland. Their first egg was recorded on May 2 and first chick on June 8 this year.
