276579924/8/20120Both nest are gone from this spot. Note the unusual structure that was probably an attempt at a nest by an amateur builder.
329180314/10/20120The reeds in the wetland are now so lush that nests can no longer be seen. During previous visits I observed 2 nests. A Masked weaver was in attendance. It looks like a male but somehow acted like a "chick" by fluttering its wings and chirping. This is only my second Masked Weaver sighting in the area.
