Table 3 in Variable foraging and flower probing behaviour of sunbird pollinators of the South African Pelargonium fulgidum

Table 3. Summary of sunbird foraging behaviour. During consistent bouts none of the aspects of foraging behaviour quantified here changed during a plant visit, whereas during variable bouts foraging behaviour and/or flower probing direction changed during a plant visit. Values represent total number of foraging bouts (2022/2023 bouts).
