There are many weaver species in SA but the ones I commonly see around
here in the Lowveld are the Masked, Lesser Masked, Village & Spectacled,
all Ploceus spp.

That's a fine shot, Subash. That weaver looks very different to ours
which tend to be mostly yellow (males more so than females).
Presumably they nest in colonies too?
what are your weavers called (so that i can look it up)? yes, they nest
in colonies, most often in trees overhanging a water body...
