[SBB] Mystery Bird

[[[email protected]]]

All
       Several weeks ago I described a mystery bird that had come to one of 
my ground feeders.  Someone suggested a Saffron Finch, but this bird was much 
larger.   Not being a North American bird, it had to be an escaped cage bird.  
After checking with the local pet store, Harriet Gerson and the internet, I 
found that the bird is indeed a Cape Weaver (Ploceus capensis), a seed eater 
very common in South Africa.
