Spotted
The Asian Golden Weaver is a beautiful species primarily found in Southeast Asia, with breeding males exhibiting a striking golden-yellow body and a black face mask.
Where to spot
Distributed across Southeast Asia, including parts of Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, and Malaysia, preferring open grasslands, paddy fields, and reedbeds near water.
How to spot
Search for them in open wetland habitats and cultivated areas. The male's bright golden and black pattern makes them quite noticeable, especially when they are perched prominently or collecting nesting materials.
When to spot
Year-round resident. The breeding season, usually coinciding with the local rainy seasons, is when males are in their brilliant golden plumage and are actively building nests.
