Some birds are skilled artisans. They can model, build or weave their homes with an exquisite aesthetic sense, just like humans.

       Weaver birds, as their name suggests, can weave large and elaborate nests in great style! There are many species in the weaver family and all of them are adapt at weaving.

       The village weaver bird probably makes the most spectacular nests. Their nests are made of grass and twigs all clustered in trees. The nests are oval or pear-shaped, with a long tubular entrance below. They are generally found suspended near the tips of branches in thorny trees, deterring most predators including snakes.

       The weaver birds are commonly found in open or semi-open habitats, including woodland and human habitation.

       They form large noisy colonies in towns, and villages. Their diet consists of seeds and grain. They are often treated as pests in farmlands.
