by Chuck Heikkinen & Delia Unson. We stayed with Delia's parents in Manila and had the use of a car. We alternated between family and friend time and birding. As a result, we relied on birding forays we could make easily using Manila as a base. Assuming one doesn't have a car available, all the places we went to are reachable by public transportation. ![]()

Information on endemics and specialities is derived from Sibley & Monroe checklists and bird distribution lists in Thayer's Birder's Diary - Version 2.05, supplemented by material found in Where to watch birds in Asia - by Nigel Wheatley, with additional information from BirdArea from Santa Barbara Software. Asian speciality birds, while not endemic, are those that can only be found in three or less countries of Asia. Information on endangered birds is derived from the IUCN Red List, Birdlife International, and supporting data bases developed by Ian Patton, of Merlin Species Watcher. The endemic, endangered and speciality birds may be uncommon, extremely rare vagrants, may be extirpated in the country now or may only be present in migration. However, documented sightings of each species noted below have been made in the Philippines. | ![]() Photo copyright Vladamir Dinets |
