Baya Weavers Start Weave Nests With The Start Of Breeding Season In Nepal

A Baya Weaver weaves its nest on the branches of a tree in Kathmandu, Nepal, on May 30, 2026. These birds, found across the Indian Subcontinent, are known for their architectural skill in building nests from hay and grasses. The monsoon season marks the mating period, during which the male constructs the nest to withstand rain and wind, while the female inspects and accepts the nest. The male continues to build the nest for the couple to live and breed in. Baya Weavers have a dull yellow color with black markings, resembling sparrows, but males become brighter with yellow and black markings during the breeding season. The birds' chirping is noticeable to people living nearby. (Photo by Subaas Shrestha/NurPhoto)
