Brilliant captures of the Common Iora and Rufous-tailed Tailorbird, JP! Now that you have a taste of Palawan, you'll always be yearning to go back.  |

Great catch JP! I remember stalking those Tailorbirds at Irawan - they are so hard to capture properly coz they always stay inside the bushes. The Iora is better behaved, but I still want a clean shot of the Tailorbird there. When do you plan to go back? I may just have a sudden "inspection" tour there. :-)
