Wow! great haul, Nilo! I could just imagine the lighting conditions when you are using such high ISO and low shutter speeds on a fast lens  Awesome! |

Sir Nilo, beautiful shots! My fave is the Palawan Peacock-pheasant. I always thought that 300mm was a bit short for birding, but you showed otherwise.  |

Wow, nice photos, Nilo. I especially like the Palawan Frogmouth and Palawan Peacock-Pheasant. May I ask where in Palawan you photographed them?

Thanks for the kind words guys.
Neon,
It was mostly dark under storey shooting scenario. I feel I've reached the limit of shooting without a tripod
Enrique,
For the shooting condition here, I think the FL is a good compromise...
Ramon,
Except for the Palawan Flycatcher, all photos were taken at Sabang area, Puerto Princesa.

These are all premium birds. I like the shape of the head of the hornbills. It looks like they are wearing the Toga for graduation. Well done Nilo & Mabuhay.
