708079710/9/20130Vm 6991 revisited. These were all very active males chasing each other around, fighting, displacing, vibrating, hanging under nests. No females seen. Seems some birds 'claiming' old nests and disputing ownership of nest or future site once old nest is stripped away. Seems there are 3 weaver species here: LMW, masked & now Village. No sign of LMW or Masked. [see also next record]
