Weaver birds in Queen Elizabeth National Park, Uganda
Look up into the branches while exploring Uganda’s Queen Elizabeth National Park and you may see a collection of weaver bird nests like this. Nearly all the species of weaver birds are known for their elaborate nests. It’s usually the males who scavenge the materials, and interlace them carefully to craft a nest nice enough to attract a mate, and strong enough to hold the chicks that will hatch within. It’s considered one of the most elaborate nests made by a bird.
