Sylvia, Christian and I were in Candaba yesterday. We agreed it was our best Candaba ever. I urge everyone to go. It was super birdy. Most birds I have seen in Candaba yet. Thousands of ducks. In the air. Phew.

The way it is now, I think we will have more birds to see. I saw a lot of the usual birds. Some were pretty close. Nice shots Tonji. Mabuhay.

Hi Leny, it was actually Alex Loinaz who first saw and photographed the GWFG.
Very glad to hear that you caught the poachers. Really shameless of them to be poaching inside a bird sanctuary. Are the geese still there?

Thanks guys. On another note I think Edu, Pao, and Robert went to look for the geese last Sunday but they did not see them. I gave them directions to the exact spot but they must have moved or something. Another picture of the geese.  |

Beautiful imagery Tonji. These images can really make you a hopeless twitcher. Let's go Alain, right now.  |

I can feel the excitement of having so many waterbirds in the air Tonji. Thanks for sharing.

Lovely catch, Tonji. I love the V-formation of the geese.
