Amazing shots, Dennis! You just happened to have your camera with you while waiting for the kids, right? ;D

The first picture looks like an Oriental Magpie Robin. The Chinese Bulbul is also known internationally as Light-vented Bulbul.

That is the way to vacation. Everybody had a good time even the big kid with the big camera. LOL. Well done Dennis, both pictures and planned vacation. Mabuhay.
