A team of ringers visited Futululu, Bonamanzi, Twinstreams and Sappi Stanger to ring birds along Zululand's coast. One of the aims was to ring Southern Brown-throated Weavers Ploceus xanthopterus and a total of 44 were handled (including 3 chicks). In addition, many Lesser Masked and Yellow Weavers were caught and a wide diversity of forest species. A total of 363 birds and 42 species were handled.
