As many of you already know, I decided to spend my birthday (yesterday) morning at Manila Zoo and Manila Bay. I would've continued on to Candaba on my 4WD but an angry wife ordered me to spend the day with humans. I won't bore you with a flood of tern shots. Just a few. First, the semi-wild from the Manila Zoo. Rufous Night-Heron On to Manila Bay Note that the whiskered tern below (and most others I got) has a partly reddish gape and partly reddish toes. Could it be they're about to go into breeding plumage? Whiskered Tern Little Egret White-collared Kingfisher Birds were so close in Manila Bay that I had to remove my TC. Then did I realize how much I missed AF! Sorry, just sneaking in this post over lunchbreak in the office so will have to put shooting details later.
