The crimson sunbird ( Aethopyga siparaja ) is a species of bird in the sunbird family which feed largely on nectar, although they will also take insects, especially when feeding the young. Flight is fast and direct on their short wings. Most species can take nectar by hovering like a hummingbird, but usually perch to feed most of the time. Wikipedia

Some discussion about this bird as Singapore National Bird, but still not officially declared as National Bird.
