Why it matters
The red-headed weaver (*Anaplectes rubriceps*) is a striking species found across sub-Saharan Africa, notable for the male's vibrant scarlet plumage and its complex, retort-shaped hanging nests. Its broad wings and notched tail are key physical characteristics that assist in its agile, active foraging within the woodland canopies it calls home.
