Hello everyone, I was able to processed a couple of photos from the trips made earlier. This captures were made with the last remaining sunlight providing backlit scene for these white parrots. Despite the difficult lighting, I'm happy with the photos (photo lifer) and the very good memories of this birding day.
Thanks for viewing.

They are beautiful. I used to have a pet Philippine Cockatoo more than 10 years ago. They are also know as Red-vented Cockatoo. I trained it to fly from his perch to my extended hand whenever I call him, to dance, and several other tricks. They are very intelligent and lovable. Well done Nilo & Mabuhay.
