Red-headed Weaver

http://weavers.adu.org.za/sp_rhw1.php see the blue box at the bottom of the link I think this bird is Anaplectes rubriceps leuconotus to be precise.

Great capture!

It is still a Red Headed Weaver. http://lists.ukzn.ac.za/pipermail/sabirdnet/2010-December/023233.html It's maybe a split in the species. http://www.kenyabirds.org.uk/red-headed_weaver.htm

I don't know if this is any help: http://www.flickr.com/photos/by-ken/3873814162/

I see where the problem is. The black mask. Still searching

In case you missed it LivanEscudero suggested Red-headed Weaver (Anaplectes rubriceps)

Fabulous picture,

How great! I think there is a mission for Wild Love...this would be perfect for that.

Looks like red-headed weaver, but species I know doesn't have black face patch

one of the prettiest pictures I've ever seen -such lovely birds !
