Macabebe Bitterns

Fatbirder's Top 1000 Birding Websites

The weather gods must be angry at nature photographers in these islands - the skies are overcast for over a month now. Just shot a few pics in this sortie to Macabebe wetlands because of the bad light. Nevertheless, long shots of a fishing Cinammon Bittern (my first detailed pics of this species) saved the trip. I had to use very slow shutter speeds and MLU to capture the bird, which came out just as the sun was setting behind the dark clouds.
