Went to Subic yesterday with Val and Alain and was glad to see the Bee-eaters are back in their usual breeding site. We had fun photographing these very colorful birds and even came back to shoot again after having our lunch. Blue-throated Bee-eater (Merops viridis), Subic Rainforest, 02/17/11 50D + EF500 + 1.4X TC, f7.1, 1/125, ISO 400, Manual Exposure, Manfrotto Gimbal Support A Duo. And A Trio.

The red Bougainvillea and the green leaves makes a nice bokeh. Well done Rey & Mabuhay.
