Weaver (Reichenow's)

Baglafecht Weaver is widespread in sub-Saharan Africa; the subspecies, known as Reichenow’s Weaver, is found in the highlands of Kenya and northern Tanzania.

Weavers get their name from the elaborate woven nests they make.

Unlike many other ploceus weavers it shows no seasonal variation in plumage which makes the adults easy to distinguish at all times of the year.
