Dropped by Raul Fuentespina's place today and caught sight of a magnificent Blue Rock Thrush or something like it, but I was not able to take a shot of it....
I was reviewing the lifers I got at Subic and came across this identifiable photo of an Eagle of sorts. I'm sure Ka Romy told me it's name, but I can't...
Hello, That is the Philippine Crested Serpent Eagle (Spilornis cheela holospilus). Some authors regard this as a separate species Spilornis holospilus. Best...
No problem Bobby! :) By the way, you can also call it either the Crested Serpent Eagle (Spilornis cheela) or the Philippine Serpent Eagle (Spilornis...
Back from vacation at Davao and Sultan Kudarat. Photos here are from Davao (I'm saving the best for last). The tree at the very entrance of the Davao Insular...
Hey, congrats, Bobby on bagging this one. I've also been stalking some of these eagles in Balara. Seen them thrice already. Here're my poor attempts, all...
Thanks Ding, though my poor quality image pales in comparison to your shot. Too bad that mature eagle is partly hidden, it would have been a keeper! Happy New...
... Great shots all over the place Ding! Looks like we are all learning from the Master. I specially like the fliers, they are quite sharp! The others were all...

Do appreciate you taking the time to view my captures, thanks Romy. Looking forward to go birding with you as well. Best regards, Reyno ... local ... lately....
Very nice captures Ding...can't wait for the next series. Best regards, Reyno ... from ... the ... clearance ... given ... sanctuary ... the ... these...
I agree with Eric on the ID, Bobby. Personally, I follow Birdforum's convention which now treats this as a separate specie, a Philippine endemic - Philippine...
Excellent, Bobby.... the male with its dark plumage is very tough to capture well. I usually shoot it during overcast weather so the BG's and the bird's...
Thanks, Romy. Yes, although we had quite heavy luggage (wife & 2 kids), my gear took top priority! Wish the monarch stayed a bit longer so I could take decent...
Where in Midsayap and how recent was this? My wife's family is in Tacurong, Sultan Kudarat so we go there on occasion. I usually could steal jeep from them...
First, I think the female bushcat was excellent! Now, is Raul Fuentespina related to the Fuentespina's of Davao? I was there last week and met Bo Fuentespina....
If Raul is not related to them, I'm pretty sure they have the same spirit. Raul also runs a farm here in Cebu, with almost all native trees represented with...
Got this fellow in the middle of a "yawn" at Mt. Makiling the other day. Everytime I see a C. Barbet now, I remember Ding's hilarious renditions of this...
I can see you got a real one. But the picture is soooo perfect that I think no one will believe it's for real. Who knows, it may have been a shrike but just...
Hahahahahaha! I agree with you Ding. The shots of "the Legend" are really perfect! Maybe, he's using the common Eurasian Tree Sparrows and a lot of Photoshop...
Angry or not, this picture is simply amazing. As usual, of course. From now on, I'll just post a CODE 10 for your shots Sir Romy. The usual "terrific,...
Gentlemen, believe me when I say this: The guy takes pictures only when everything is working for the best photo; the light, the angle, the background, etc. ...
Oconific... I like that! :) Eric P. ... From: bobby6425 To: philippine_bird_photography@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday, January 04, 2007 6:27 PM Subject:...
Wow! I look forward to the time when I will personally witness the Master at work. I can already picture him shooting through your description. Although, I...
