Why it matters
The Bar-winged Weaver (Ploceus angolensis) is a distinctive inhabitant of the miombo woodlands, named for the subtle yet diagnostic wing markings that differentiate it from other members of its genus. Its uniquely notched tail and broad wing shape assist in its specialized foraging habits within the forest canopy, making it a sought-after subject for observers documenting the avian diversity of Southern and Central Africa.
