The aim of this work was to study the occurrence of sunbirds in different habitats, to observe and describe their activity frequencies, to observe the relationship of the Long-billed sunbird Cinnyris lotenius and Purple-rumped sunbird Leptocoma zeylonica with their host flowers, and to examine their behavioral relationships with the colour of the flower, flower count, nectar glucose concentration and the length of corolla of flowers. Sunbirds (Passeriformes: Nectariniidae) are small passerines that feed largely on nectar. Therefore the relevant authorities should take immediate conservation action to increase the protection of these marginal areas or buffer zone in the near future. However, these precious habitats and its species are threatened due to irresponsible human activities such as, forest fires, land filings, hunting, road kills, encroachments, garbage dumping, agrochemicals, granite-rock blasting, logging, and road constructions.
