Southern Masked Weaver
These guys are very busy this time of the year with building their nests and trying to attract females. They are also lightning fast. Taken at Mankwe hide in the Pilanesberg National Park.

Moment very well captured Gerrie. Sharp, nice detail, good BG and comp.
Now that is spilit timing, as you have pressed the shutter the moment he thought of taking off. Pin sharp, good detail and colours, and just the perfect BG. Well captured Gerrie.
As others have commented, great color, timing with pleasing BG, well done Gerrie.
Snap! This speedy flier is not an easy catch, let alone with nice perch and BG. I would crop a bit tighter, well done.

Great timing, EXP, and SH. Love the view of the dorsal surface of the far wing; near wing position less appealing. Nice BKGR too.
