I needed a retirement hobby. It turned out to be birds.

Blue-Eared Kingfisher (Alcedo meninting)

The bright blue of a kingfisher's feathers is not actually due to pigmentation, but is due to the structure of the feather, which scatters/reflects light to make them almost appear iridescent. Show offs.

Gray-Faced Buzzard (Butastur indicus)

This buzzard came out a little fuzzard - but you try focusing on a flying football 200ft over your head. We do the best we can.

Pacific Reef-Heron (Egretta sacra)

Why do herons sleep on one leg?

Because if they lifted the other leg they would fall.

Palawan Sunbird (Cinnyris aurora)

The elusive Palawan Sunbird. And bonus shot of the even more elusive Palawan SunbirdER.

01/21/2026

Brahminy Kite (Haliastur indus)

In Hinduism, the Brahminy Kite is considered the contemporary version of Garuda, the King of Birds and mount of Lord Vishnu.

So, it's kind of a big deal.

Philippine Bulbul (Hypsipetes philippinus)

Sometimes English names for birds lead to amusing entendres in the local language.

For instance, "bulbol" in Tagalog translates to "p***s." 💫 The more you know. 🤓

Bar-bellied Cuckooshrike (Coracina striata)

Cuckooshrikes are not closely related to either cuckoos or shrikes, but here we are.

Sulphur-billed Nuthatch (Sitta oenochlamys)

A group of nuthatches is called a b***y. Things we learned today.

Rose-ringed Parakeet (Psittacula krameri)

Fun fact about yours truly: I had a pet rose-ringed parakeet for many years. Her name was Daisy. 🌼

Blue-naped Parrot (Tanygnathus lucionensis)

He may have a blue nape, but the rest of him is all decked out for the holidays. 🎄

Red-vented Cockatoo (Cacatua haematuropygia)

I was glad to catch a shot of this pair together. Otherwise it would only have been a cockaone.

Rufous-tailed Tailorbird (Orthotomus sericeus)

I tried to tailor some puns to go with this bird, but I'm all out of material.
