The baya weaver at my patch
After reading Tabibs blog on the baya weaver, I decided to have a check at last year's baya weaver nesting site. Sure enough, they are building their nest at the same tree.. also have a look at another site at Bukit SUK, also at the same tree

Look like that nest is already approved by female partner, because the 'funnel' is under construction there.
ReplyDeletethe expert in Baya Weaver knows very well, I'll take his word
ReplyDeletethe birds usually build their nest on the thinnest branches overhanging a pond or a river. which makes the best safe from predators. but the monkey that has hands like man never builds a house of its iwn why?
ReplyDeletethe weaver bird makes its nest on the weakest branch of a tree overhanging a river / pond. it makes its entry from the bottom, keeps a jugnu for light and keeps the nest cozy by lining the roof and the bottom with mud. but look at the monkey who has hands but does not make a home.
