I previously noticed on Google Earth that there is a wide area under water at the western seaboard of Sto. Tomas town, La Union.
This March 8th, I did a scouting run in that place and found out that good concrete roads lead into the middle of what turned out
to be many hectares of fishponds. It is a promising spot for water birds in flight, and I'll be back soon for more BIF shots.
It's not often that I get a BIF shot whose comp out of the camera is already ok to my taste.
Whiskered Tern (Chlidonias hybridus, migrant, non-breeding plumage)
