Common birds of Jugan, Cebu

[Tateo Osawa]

Hello,
I like to share the photos of common birds in Jugan, Cebu. I think the Purple Heron is a first record for Cebu.

Thank you.

Thanks Nilo. This is the only date I can find in the posting. Does that mean it was photographed 26 September?

Congratulations Sir Tateo! New Cebu record holder!

@ Sir Nilo: We took some photos of the purple Heron around 10am when we sighted its presence at a distant portion of Jugan fishponds. In fact after lunch, Sir Tateo attempted to crawl towards the Heron to get a close up shot but it flew right away. This photo was taken when we again noticed the heron strolling near our usual birding site. Allow me to show you the location of the bird.

What a harvest !!! Congratulations :-) Must have been so nice to finally see the purple heron in Cebu

[Tirso Paris]

Very nice series Tateo. They might be common birds but are photographed beautifully. I like all but most specially the golden plover, the brown shrike, and the wood sandpiper. Congrats too on the purple heron.
