Taking pictures on Mt. Polis requires some patience. When a bird wave comes maybe 15 birds of several different species start flying around and feeding. This bird was part of a big bird wave. Late in the afternoon, this Island Verditer perched right in front of me and gave me enough time to get off several shots. Island Veriditer-flycatcherEumyias panayensis

Amazing details on this close capture Tonji. Must be hard to choose target when the mixed flocks arrives.  |

Rey, yup I had the Elegant tits, Metallic winged sunbirds, White eyes, and the Chestnut faced Bablers all in one wave. Crazy birding. Fun. Needless to say I tried to get them all!  |

This is where concentration counts the most. It would be interesting to see the other captures especially when you did it so well with this one. Well done Tonji. Mabuhay.
