Mt. Makiling - Part VI

Almost got the Tarictic Hornbill in this trip. A group of three perched on the treetops above me (Station 2),
honking their trumpet-like call. I had to shoot against the sun so I tried to set my flash to manual-full power mode.
Of course, Murphy's Law took over - they flew away before I can get the shot. Managed to shoot one lifer though...8-)
