This poofy little bird is a Vitelline masked weaver (Ploceus vitellinus)

Ah thank you very much! There were some nests in the exhibit hanging from the branches so I guess these guys must have made them.
I'll update the ID when I get back from work.
Thank you again ^^

Yep, those are most likely made by the weavers - they are extremely crafty builders and some species in particular make elaborate homes with chambers, long entrance 'hallways' and even false entrances/exits to confuse predators! My pleasure
