When I had a few days in Uroa in Zanzibar this time, I wanted to make a "mini-documentary" of the African golden weaver nesting and mating behavior. To my great regret, the colony that I had followed last year had moved, but I eventually found it and its new territory, in the neighboring hotel garden. This species is a classic weaver, and it builds nests reminiscent of bells, with the entrance at the bottom. It is the male that does all the hard work and then waits for the females to find out if any of his nests may suit them.
