This capture of a beautiful near-Philippine endemic in sweet light, showing more of the bird's details, replaces the photo of the same species also taken at Subic. The eye catchlight, pose, better perch, and amazing colors courtesy of the setting golden sun pushed this photo into the Top endemics list.
