Weaver birds or Baya are tiny birds as small as a common sparrow. They are known for their weaving skills and their unique nests that hang from the branches with entrance from the bottom, so as to evade predators.

Small Tools, Great Use!

With just their small beaks,

Hopping around on branches;

They weave their cute nests.

Unique Nests

Entrance from below;

To save their chicks from killers;

And also from rains.

    And they are stronger too, like being woven by a human hand.
