Ploceus philippinus
Small finch-like bird with buff sides and dark crown, pale belly.
Tropical woodland
Known to weave beautiful nests with twigs, sought after by interior designers to make lamp shades (not an eco-friendly idea). This one has a nest in a low tree growing out of a small pond. It was flitting from tree to tree, as if to see if it is same to approach the nest.
