NotesOne individual building nests in Palm tree outside front door of guesthouse. None of them used by weaver as owner kept chasing them away and used plastic snakes. Cape Sparrow was happy to take over (last pic). The house owner told me it was the "weaver with the black and yellow face" so I assume that is the SMW. He says they were all done by one bird.
