Thanks to Prof. Tirso for being a gracious host and for taking Tina and I around his "neighborhood."

Fantastic pictures Martin. Nice to see you using a Canon. I believe being with Prof. Tirso really brings you close to the birds. He is one of the stealthiest bird photographer that I know. It is always fun to be with him especially in UPLB, he knows that place like the palm of his hand.

I especially like the Little Egret with plumes and the Whiskered Tern with great details. I can see through the nostril! And I can see the toes of it's other foot peeking out from under the body!
