I just got the DOT Bird book, and I found that the Male Pied Buschat was mine, but it was labeled incorrectly as taken by Nicky. Also, my Everets White-eye in the Postcard booklet was labeled as taken by Neon, hehehehe.
Anybody else in the same boat? Maybe we can write a notice to the publisher to correct the errors in the next run. :-)

Tina's zebra doves were credited to Ding as a photo of a Philippine Cuckoo-Dove 2. Rey's Brahminy Kite was credited to Ivan as a Mantanani Scops Owl. 3. Bobby's Everett's was credited to Neon as a Lowland white eye. 4. Tina's Blue Throated Bee eater was credited to Neon 5. Bobby's Bushchat was credited to Nicky These are the errors I saw.  |

Book: I have a lot of white bellied woodpecker photos but I don't think that the one credited to me (Subic section) is mine ;D
Postcards: My zebra dove couple was credited to our good friend, Geodino Carpio ;D

Neon, I did not submit a blue throated bee eater photo kasi sa final high resolution photos but I know I have a similar photo somewhere. |

Hehehe, I thought so. I guess the time factor in coming up with the publication ASAP contributed to the errors, but all in all, the book is really well put together. Congrats to all who made the cut! :-)

I wish, next time, they'd misspell Tina Mallari into Ding Carpio.  |

...I thought Nicky was just making a joke when he said it was not his picture....i'm sure they will have to correct it for future printing.... |

I asked for Nicki's autograph when we were at the BirdFest and immediately he said "Ok, I will sign in the bushchat photo page". I did not have a clue why he singled out that one. Later, I learned. Of course he did not sign... most of the time Nicki is not serious- deliriously deranged, yes!  |

No wonder!  But it's well-made and easy to use if you want to try the activity. It's a great gift to give. Showing off the postcards, had people really admiring the shots. Wait til they peek into the PBP forum or the Photo-exhibit at Vargas Hall. ;D Congratulations to all those who made it! Carmela |

I do agree it is a well written book and will cater to the birdwatcher tourists. Most of the mix-up is not with the book it's with the Post Cards. Basically the book has a few errors but given the time it was put together, I commend the people behind this effort. I saw only one error in the book, Bobby's Pied Bushchat was credited to Nicky , but they corrected this mistake in the Post Card ;D |
