- Common Name : Black breasted weaver (Bengal weaver)
Scientific Name : Ploceus benghalensis
This is a weaver resident in the northern river plains of the Indian subcontinent. Like the other weavers, the males build an enclosed nest from reeds and mud, and visiting females select a mate at least partially based on the quality of the nest.
Nesting Season: June to September
Nest: Similar to the streaked weaver; somewhat smaller and normally with shorter entrance tubes. Built in reed-beds in marsh, often moonj or kans (Saccharum spontaneum), with some of the growing reeds incorporated into the dome as support. Entrance tube is somewhat shorter than Baya weavers (up to about 25 cm).
Colony: Singly or in scattered groups of 4 or 5; sometimes larger colonies.
Eggs: 3 or 4, white, indistinguishable from those of the other two weavers.
