If anyone is keeping tabs on this, i'd be interested in photographing it
this coming weekend as it's only a tad over an hour from my house.  Even
if it is escaped it'd be nice to have some documented pictures for
posterity :)  Who knows, maybe the Weaver just got lost ;) (yea right,
i'm dreaming...)
 
A heads up this Thursday or Friday on whether it is still being seen
would be cool.
 
Thanks,

I typically don't post sightings of obvious escaped birds, but this 
one is really unusual. There is a female Baglafecht Weaver (Ploceus 
baglafecht) visiting a feeder in the town of Freeport, Stearns 
County. The species is not on the AOU Check-List of North American 
Birds. They occur throughout eastern Africa, and are best known from 
the highlands of Kenya. It also occurs in north-eastern Uganda, 
south-eastern Ethiopia, northern Tanzania, and other nearby countries.

Paul Hetland is hosting the bird at 313 2nd Ave NW in Freeport. The 
feeder can be seen from the street.
