I could do with some help with these two birds photographed in Zanzibar last week. Neither completely match the pictures and descriptions in the field guide. I have put the weaver down as an African Golden Weaver but the eye seems too red compared to the guide description as pale red. The mannikin I have taken as Bronze Mannikin but it was generally dark on mantal and wings not showing the brown in the guide.
Am I way off beam?
