I wasn't able to post this due to amount of trouble Typhoon Ketsana/Ondoy added to my work. Pls do not mind the varying size of the watermark. It is the result of how cropped the image is in Apple Aperture. Feel free to correct my ID. This is the first time I've encountered a lot of these birds. Also this is the first time I have half decent bird in flight shots. Still need to do some work.

So that's that. I really like OIWS and hope to go back some time in the future. The hospitality and the help of the locals and the DENR is impressive.
