Southern Masked Weaver - Ploceus velatus
Tisserin à tête rousse
Usually found in pairs, they nest in colonies in trees. They live in acacia scrub and woodlands, and dry savannahs. I have a pair in my garden all year-round. Se rencontrent généralement en couple. Forment d'importantes colonies pour nicher dans les arbres. Fréquentent les buissons d'acacias, les régions boisées et la savane sèche. Un couple réside à l'année dans mon jardin.
