Thanks, Bindi and everybody. Tina, where are your IBKF captures??? And Chito's too? ;D I'm rationing mine, processing only a couple a day so the hoard will last till the next sortie, hehehe. Here's my last IBKF for today - the crab would lose all its extremities (and senses too I suppose ;D) shortly after this photo was snapped. The bird repeatedly banged the crustacean against the hard surface of the log to get rid of the legs and claws and perhaps to soften the hard shell before it swallows the prey. 40D + 500 f4 IS + Canon 1.4x TC, 700 mm, f/5.6, ISO 800, 1/160 sec, manual exposure in available light, 475B/3421 support:Absolutely Amazing .... perfect timing and very well composed. Truly a world-class capture Romy !!!

congrats to all of you, what a beautiful bird... Please take me here next time Romy!! How far is this from my hotel??
Young fellow, I hope you enjoy the time with your father, he is a good man, and a wonderful, highly respected photog, around the world. One day you will realize how lucky you are, and always respect your parents.
good luck with everything, and I really hope to meet you next trip to Philippines.
take good care... Ingat!!

Wow. How ironic that an IBK was responsible for getting the father started and now it's the first endemic photo-lifer for the son. Sorry Romy but that shot by Pogito is a lot better than your first photo of the IBK. ;D Iwanan mo na si Pogito dito. It's the same thing with me, there is something in that bird image that is quite powerful. Ka Romy's capture of the IBK also got me started in bird photography. I can't believe my eyes when I saw how beautiful this bird is. I never knew that we have such beautiful birds in the country. I said to myself, I can do this, can't be that difficult, well was I terribly wrong.... Here is the Master's truly inspiring and breathtaking capture of the IBK:

Shucks so sorry IDOL, didn't notice your question... My captures are not worth posting here among yours and pogito's fantastic captures so decided to play with the images and turned them to digital art - hehehehehehehe ;D ;D ;D
