WEAVERBIRD.

Of all bird nests, those made by the weaverbirds are the most extraordinary. Weaver birds belong to the family Ploceidae. There are about 170 species in the family. Although thier nests vary in size and shape, the same elaborate interweaving of grass or leaf strips is found in the nests of all the species. Most true weavers are seed eaters with strong, short bills; some that live in forests eat insects and have less robust bills. The birds are usual found in the hot dry country sides of Africa but are also found in Aisa and Austrailia
