793, Red-headed Weaver Anaplectes rubriceps (see species summary here)Record status ACCEPTED Vm 18646 [on-line data upload (2016-01-04): 186172] Species Red-headed Weaver Observer(s) Willems, Frank Country, town, locus Zambia, , Kalonje,
1231ADLocality Mutinondo Wilderness Latitude, longitude -12.45451, 31.29218 [0 m accuracy] Date 2016/1/4 Notes nests under the roof of the dining room. This weaver has used the old nest as support for a new nest… twice! Despite that it seems the first nest was never selected (short entrance tube).
It is part of a “colony” of now 10 nests (counting the “flats block” as 3!) under the same roof, plus another 1 nest under the roof of our house, some 50 meters away. I’m guessing these are all built by the same male, over maybe 3 years? Surely haven’t seen more than a single male or female at the same time. Nest count 10 Nest site man-made
