What an interesting bird! I thought they lived in tree hollows by day? The camouflage is really wonderful!
Wel done nestor:)

Nice Nestor! I can imagine you had quite a time stalking this baby in the brush. But if you were with PropGerry, that must have made spotting it easier.  |

Thanks Bindi & Reyno  TJ, absolutely right without his expertise (PropGerry) it is very difficult to spot this bird. |

Looks like you looked for this bird inside the bushes. Congratulations on the lifer Nestor.
Ehemmmmmm I want to go with you guys next week Kuya Pitsew BUT only if I will be able to follow somebody who's going back to Manila because I definitely cannot stay there overnight.
