This is a place in Pangasinan that my friend James brought me to. We were taking pictures from the car using a bean bag that I am experimenting on our way to Manleluag. The pictures that I took were over exposed, but I would like to test the new source of my URL. Canon 5DM2, EF 800mm F5.6 IS L Lens Blue-tailed Bee-eater (Merops philippinus) ISO 400, 1/1000, f8 Long-tailed Shrike or the Rufous-backed Shrike (Lanius schach) ISO 400, 1/800, f5.6 When you see a bird raise its tail, something is about to happen. Did you see what happened? Caught the action before it fell to the ground. Heh heh heh.

Thank you Toto and Edu. Its funny. When I saw the bird raising its tail, I was hoping that I get to capture the action and voila there it is. Not a pretty picture but something we can all laugh about. Heh heh heh. Mabuhay.

Perfect timing on the shrike photo, Ely! Thank you Bob. Other than that I was not able to take any good pictures on this trip. How about sharing some of the beautiful birds there with us? Mabuhay.

I actually kinda like the overexposed treatment. Gives an artsy feel. Good job Ely!
