NotesSuspected to be a nest of Little Weaver, 2 birds were recorded at the same site 10m away, and nest size and shape matched up for Little Weaver although I'm not 100% certain as Black-headed Weaver - Ploceus melanocephalus has been recorded from the vicinity and the nest is similar. Nest size played a role in my opinion of this being Little Weaver though. The nests were not over water but within 15m of water.
