Original – The
Village or
Black-headed weaver (Ploceus cucullatus bohndorffi ). Males build their nests in hope that a female will be impressed by their skill. This bird in the
Queen Elizabeth National Park ,
Uganda should have no problems attracting a mate.

Very nice, but do I see some haloing or chromatic aberrations around the bird's back? —

I don't see anything. The back feathers have motion blur of course.

It's the opposite of blur. It's almost overly sharp, except for some haloing. —

I'd not seen the article you mention @
J Milburn : . The article for the
Yellow-backed weaver (a different species) was incorrect named black-headed weaver and my link went to it. I've now renamed the article. Do you think it should be the main picture? I've added the image to the page
Ploceidae .
