About These Birds
Black-necked Weaver
The Black-necked Weaver is a medium-sized weaver; males have a black head and neck, golden-yellow body, and brown wings, while females are more streaked. It inhabits dense forest edges, secondary growth, and tall vegetation near water in west-central Africa. Males build woven hanging nests in colonies, and the species feeds on seeds, insects, and berries.
African Golden Weaver
The African Golden Weaver weighs about 31g and inhabits coastal East Africa. Males are vivid yellow with orange-washed heads and weave intricate hanging nests over water during breeding season.
