I caught this Cape Weaver about to take off in Addo Elephant National Park during our September South Africa tour.

Beautiful image with great color and detail. Great timing to capture the pre-flight pose.

I loved watching their relatives, the masked weavers constructing their intricate nests along the river edge in Zambia. A sweet image of this industrious little bird Nate.

The raised wing makes this an interesting image, Nate!
Well timed indeed.
