The orange-breasted sunbird (Anthobaphes violacea) is a small, highly specialized passerine bird largely centered in the Western Cape of South Africa, with its range extending slightly into the western edge of the Eastern Cape. This species exhibits striking sexual dimorphism, making adults easy to distinguish. The adult male is a spectacular sight, boasting a metallic green head and throat, a violet breast band, and a fiery orange chest that fades into a bright yellow belly, alongside elongated central tail feathers. Conversely, the adult female is much duller, wrapped in a camouflaging olive-green and yellowish-grey plumage. Juvenile males initially look like females but gradually acquire their adult plumage through successive molts.
Both sexes share a long, black, downward-curved bill perfectly designed to probe deeply into tubular flowers.

As a near-endemic of the unique Fynbos biome, these active birds are common residents of mountain fynbos, coastal scrub, and cultivated areas like the Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden, though occasional vagrants are recorded in neighboring arid areas. They exhibit altitudinal migration, moving up mountain slopes during the summer and descending into valleys in winter to track blooming patterns. As specialized nectarivores, their diet relies heavily on the nectar of endemic Erica and Protea species, making them vital pollinators for this ecosystem. To supplement their diet with protein, especially when raising young, they also actively hawk for tiny insects and spiders.
