Help monitor weaver colonies

To take part you need to first register as an ADU participant here.
Then find a weaver colony, take photos and count the nests, and identify the species if you can. Read a more detailed description here.
Note that to submit the record, you cannot use Internet Explorer - unfortunately it does not work for uploading photos. The VM web gives links to other free browsers if you don't already have one (eg Firefox, Chrome).
Then fill in the web form to upload the record!
