The 7,107 islands of the Philippines is a host to more than 600 species of birds, 194 of which are endemic to the country. Moreover, many of the endemic species are restricted to certain areas of the country.

This gallery contains all of my wild bird photographs, taken in various places of the Philippines. Images in other bird galleries are taken from this gallery. The images are shown in reverse chronological order, with my most recent captures shown first.

Zebra Dove (Geopelia striata)
Philippine Eagle-Owl (Bubo philippensis)
Angono, Rizal, 1 Mar 2012
This Bar-tailed Godwit (Limosa lapponica) checks the water for food while a Ruddy Turnstone and another wader take comfort on a dry patch of land.

Another Greater Sand-Plover (Charadrius leschenaultii) standing still under the Olango sun.
A Greater Sand-Plover (Charadrius leschenaultii) in its honeymoon outfit pauses for a moment before continuing its pursuit for sustenance. A little head turn towards me would have been nice.

Living up to the first word of its name, this Far Eastern Curlew (Numenius madagascariensis) ensured that it can only be photographed a light year away. A 1600mm would come in handy.

As seawater slowly creeps into dry land, this Terek Sandpiper (Xenus cinereus) walks around checking the breakfast menu.

Another shot of a Whiskered Tern (Chlidonias hybridus) in a "not-so-standard" wing position.
A Whiskered Tern (Chlidonias hybridus) flies in full speed in the golden Olango sunset.
