Wow thanks Romy. Its cool to get featured in the Bird Photo of the week. Its too bad Sylvia did not post her shots yet since most of our pictures are the same anyway. Thanks again for the Feature.
Thanks Ely. It was not hard work, its really just fun for us. We love walking around and looking at birds. Thanks for the kind comments and the encouragement.

Congrats Tonji!! Any of your Palawan captures could have landed here but the rarity of this bird, exposed full body and beautiful perch separated it from the rest.  |

Big congrats Tonjie. To me it's a toss up between this and the Blue-eared KF. Mastah Romy must had a hard time choosing between the two great captures.  |

Thanks a lot guys. We were just lucky that the birds decided to come by and pose for us. We were also fortunate that it did not rain in Palawan. Thanks again for the encouragement. |
