nice lemon-throated leafbird!
i think balicassiao is absent in palawan and what you have is the spangled drongo.

Thanks guys.
Indeed, Palawan is a treasure trove for a birding sortie. But two days is not enough, my stay is more of a familiarization tour. I manage to get a glimpse of the Tabon bird and the Palawan Pheasant Peacock. However, I was not able to properly set myself for a good shot at them since they were constantly on the move. They are hounded by the three monitor lizards and some monkeys.
