Mr. sunshine
i know many of you missing the sun these days. here they already started to make nests and hang up-side-down with flickering wings to impress the girl, and she seldom accept the first or the second one, he sometimes could do about 6. hope you like it.- ammadoux

thanks Olympus
that pro capture mode is really ingenious, all you have to do is keep the shutter half press if you continue clicking all the shots taken half a second before will be taken, if you take your finger up those in the buffer will be deleted. i was really lucky to find one working against the sky...- ammadoux

back to the garden
not much happening, i can hear the ring necked parakeet but can't see them so with the white wagtail and the collared doves, heard the graceful prinia once only, but the sparrows, bulbuls and weavers seem to be celebrating the garden. here is Mr weaver enjoying the midday bath. hope you like it.- ammadoux

handsome one
i have just realized that the last time i uploaded a pic of this weaver was back in June 2013, maybe because most of the shots i get is on or with the nest. so here is the male with full face mask, which he usually losses outside the breeding season. i got here thread to show the different...- ammadoux

watching .....
the male while he is doing the nest so if he play hooky she uses the rolling pin, hehehe. no really, making many nest is a necessary to test the technique, specially these very windy days, he also keep on going to an old nest that was built last December, one of few that did not fell to see...- ammadoux

my hysterical weaver
fighting and showing tantrums on all other birds, but his mortal enemy is another weaver who insists on building his nest near his nest. usually weavers are social and don't mind being together, but this one is really a bad tempered one, he also fights with the much larger bulbuls and mynahs...- ammadoux

Young and Shaggy!
poor little one, not as pretty as the fully adult males, but he is doing a good job with the nest, he even attracted a young female, i don't think it is a wise thing to do because she is not helping at all with the weaving, usually they pick older ladies with enough experience in nest making...- ammadoux

now we became friends.
i have discovered some of the routine of this lovely lady weaver, at about 6:45 am she comes for a drink from the water pool i put under the desert bush, i have noticed also that she knows i am around and i don't worry her, what worries her is the two orange cats who wait everyday by the water...- ammadoux
