Close up of Sucrier / Bananaquit / Coereba flaveola in the mango tree. They are attracted by the hummingbird feeder on the porch and I had to create a makeshift feeding station for them as well.

Sucrier is the French word for sugar bowl. The birds are comfortable enough to hop onto outside breakfast tables (often in hotels), which is probably how they got the name in the far back. It's pronounced Sic-ee-yay, in proper Trinidadian fashion of mangling old French and Spanish words.
