Yellow Weaver (m)

A yellow weaver from a colony in the reeds by the St. Lucia estuary. Characterised by a red-orange eye and a limited orange wash on the head.

 

The name yellow weaver comes from my field guide, which unfortunately doesn't include scientific names, that I can't find through Google. However the guide does include an Afrikaans name (geelwewer) which led me to the alternative name of Eastern golden weaver.
