weavers in Namibia during nesting weaver birds are on every corner throughout Namibia. One way to build
settlers Webern (
Philetairus socius), surprisingly large communal nests in the trees. While the yellow
village Weber (Ploceus cucullatus
) many delicate individual nests hang side by side in the trees.
Since the weaver birds live forever in a great community there is always something going on properly. It is a constant coming and going. Especially at lunchtime when everywhere else is very quiet, can be found in the weaver birds are still plenty of action and nice shots. The best is to grab a lawn chair and looks just a while (IMPORTANT! goggles to protect against falling Droppings do not forget).

With luck, you will also find a village weaver, who is currently creating a new nest, or to weave words better. And that's very fascinating to observe how quickly and skillfully weaves the birds one by one blade of grass in its nest.
For the photos I chose for me the animal perspective, in this case is the "bird's eye view" of course vertically from below, as are the nest entrances. Was not that easy, because the thin road has moved only by the weight of the little bird very strong. And my design with the tripod and the Gimbalhead was very shaky anyway - this combination is made for such a perspective is not perpendicular to the top easily.
