Description
The gregarious Golden Weaver can be found searching for seeds only in eastern Africa: Tanzania to Sudan. Thickset and stout-billed, it is distinguished by its bright plumage and elaborate nests -- tough, intricate, highly durable structures suspended from trees, with the entrance at the bottom. The nests often hang from the tips of twigs or palm fronds, and are most frequently found near water. A treetop colony of Golden Weavers can be filled with these nests, all slung close together to form a menage somewhat resembling a suburban development tract. Since Golden Weavers tend to be noisy, the constant hubbub from a nesting colony can almost make it sound like a suburb, too! In any case, the sociability of the Golden Weaver makes it hard to miss. Uganda sits at the heart of its range, and the Golden Weaver is an outspoken part of this nation's bird life.
