These are really good finds! Ive never been half way across Mt Talomo; only in Eden and that's not even 1/4 i guess! I would love to go there. Thanks for posting pics like these..made really in to it. ;)

i wonder if i could borrow 2 of the bird images shot in Davao, i'm doing a an extranet project for the davao city and i would like to display the different beauties/attractions in davao. in return i would attach the photographer's name in the images as an act of acknowledgment.

I've seen a number of black birds as well as ones they call "maria capra" that appear to dance around. Do you have any pictures of these birds and what are their real names?

I enjoy bird watching a lot with the help of my first book on philippine birds as a guide. Just moved to davao 6 mos. ago and have viewed a diversity of these feathered creatures already. My regret is that there are some that I hear only but could not identify or see. Can you give an idea what sounds these birds make???
