Summary[edit]

Description

The Baya Weaver Season is here again. Small but amazing birds that build strong nests which can withstand strong winds and rain. The birds build nests as a competition to attract females. The females inspect the nest and mate with the bird whose nest they like. These birds are polygamous and engage with multiple partners. The breeding season around us is between Apr - Jun I suppose - so we would be seeing a lot of activity. Maybe I should target a video this time.

And btw, the male in this picture wasn't successful - Poor thing. But the whole drama of the female inspection and the males literally flapping with joy at the sight of the female was so delightful and memorable - and of course we had a good laugh.

Many thanks in advance for your views/ feedback. Much appreciated.
