Thanks Romy, Alain, Ely, Tina and Bobby. Lifer and BFOW too cool. Sylvia and I owe a lot of thanks to Nicky for being the best possible guide. Due to his expert guiding even our son Franco has now seen the Apo Sunbird. Which is so cool for a birder parent I also want express my appreciation for my companions Nicky, Franco and Sylvia who graciously climbed up one more hour because I did not yet have a nice shot.
