Village weaver

Description:

Portrayed here is male molting to breeding colors, from a non-descript whitish below and somewhat-sparrow-like above, it will take bright yellow colors with black mask and bill - like here http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/335.... Red eye is diagnostic for this weaver.

Habitat:

Highly gregarious, this fella posed for me in our compound in Guereda, as his colony was on trees in the neighbourhood. Guereda is located in Sahel belt, arid to semi-arid zone bordering Sahara.
