There is a pair of nesting pied trillers that can be photographed up close here at U.P. Just ask the Faculty Center guard where this bird is or send me an SMS message (0920-923-3263). I am posting some photos so you can estimate if it is worth phtographing. Cheers!

What!! I was at UP!! Unfortunately I forgot my phone at home:'( . I was checking out the fruiting fig in front of MSI, I was also unlucky as the guard ask me to leave, authorized vehicles are only allowed!!  The fig was so full of ripe red berries this might generate some surprises this weekend if the guards would allow us to park just beside it. |

Thanks Master Romy!! I just tried staking and experimenting with all the TC (1.4x & 2x Kenko) that I have since the bird would be stationary. I was also surprised with its outcome. Propjerry, your captures were I think from a different pair, yours have a clearer view than what I got. How many nest are there? |

Wohoo!
PropJerry texted me the location. Will try it next week. Were you on the rooftop or on ground?
