Purple-rumped Sunbird - Nectarinia zeylonica, Home garden, Avissawella, Sri Lanka.

A male with its beautiful plumage.

A not so pretty female.
You need to be quick and have a fast focus and fast shutter release on your camera to take photos of them. I used a Nikon D90 with a 70-300mm zoom Nikkor lens.
