where large flocks of Weyns's Weavers Ploceus weynsi, totalling at least 5,000 birds, were assembling every evening just outside Epéna before flying to roost in scrubby fallow fields a few kilometres away. The species was also observed on the western border of the reserve on the Bailly River. This constitutes a new species for the country and western Africa, although its occurrence is perhaps unsurprising as it has been recorded on the other side of the Congo River in DR Congo, from Mbandaka to Bumba.
