Brown-capped Weaver (Ploceus insignis) (1 Viewer)

Steve G

RAINBIRDER
A bird of Highland forest from 1200-3000m. Images taken in moist forest on the mid-slopes of Mount Kenya near Serena Mountain Lodge.
This weaver creeps Nuthatch-like along the moss-covered boughs of forest trees in search of food.
Both images below are of a male bird (chestnut cap).
