Just to say hello and hello again to some of you. I now live in Thailand but spent the first 50 years of my life in the UK, being born and growing up in Glasgow, Scotland and then moving south to London for almost 30 years. My wife is from Negros, from Bacolod City and we are visiting again with our young son in early October for two weeks. Going to spend all our time in Negros in BC so would love to meet local birders and get out and do some birding. Best wishes, Gerry botab.blogspot.com

Hi Chai & Des I photographed the same bird today in the same place in the village of Narra, opposite Rasa Island on Palawan. I believe Des is correct: it is a first winter black tailed gull. Go to this link for a good shot orientalbirdimages.org/search.php?action=searchresult&Bird_ID=965. Here is my bad shot of the same bird. The bird was wearing a black band on its right leg. Perhaps someone could advise where this should be reported.
