Field Notes

Description:

The Preuss's Golden-backed Weaver is a beautiful weaver that is seldom seen and even less often photographed as it lives in the high canopy of West Africa's rainforests. This image was taken from the Kakum Canopy Walkway in Kakum National Park. This weaver feeds like a nuthatch, running along and peering under branches!
