Mt. Makiling - Part XII

Fatbirder's Top 1000 Birding Websites

I must have been smitten by this enchanted mountain as I return once again to try my luck on its beautiful birds. For the second straight visit in a row, I was able to behold the very handsome Philippine Trogon. Twice too I failed to get a pic of this most wanted bird. Well, I'll keep on trying... end of summer and the onset of the next rainy season is still lightyears away...8-)
