Female Spectacled Weaver. The male has the black throat. Was looking at Stephens two images of the Spectacled Weaver and i think they may be the Northern Masked Weaver or simlar. Do we have some knowledgeable weaver members who may shed some light on these two posts.

    I think you may be the knowledgable member :) Just doing some reference image searching I think your claim is very likely correct, so I updated the other two photos. Thanks for spotting this, pun intended. Posted 9 years ago
