I can't thank you enough for putting your pictures on line. I am leaving for a 3-week birding trip to the Philippines tomorrow. For the last two weeks I have been going over and over your pictures. I feel prepared. My birding will be much more enjoyable.

I would love to buy you a San Mig. Thanks, Pete
