Hmmm...I think the birds look a lot better than the birders. That's why the birders are always behind the cameras/bins/scopes. ;D Actually not bad ... really.

Ding, Speak for yourself :-). Kidding lang. Nice Pics, really. For the first exihibit of the group. as Romy mentioned last night, it turned out really well. Congratulations to PBPF, the photographers and all others who extended their help in this endeavor. I share the hope with all, I suppose, that this will help promote Philippine bird awareness, specially in the young, bird and habitat conservation, and nature enjoyment. Chito
