The Habitat ... collection of nest material and display activity ...
of
Streaked Weaver- male ...
often
live in the shadow
of more commonly
sighted and celebrated
Baya Weaver ... with whom
they have a close
resemblance ...
Their nests too are
fairly elaborate
but, more concealed
in the reed and tall
grass ...
This image was taken
in the
' Lost Wetland '
area ... that does not
exist anymore ...
... A glimpse of the
same can be had in
this video clip done
at the same time ... that
also shows the Weaver
collecting mud ... as well
as displaying with
his mud-covered bill ...
