Narcissus Flycatcher at UP-Diliman!

Fatbirder's Top 1000 Birding Websites

A colorful male Narcissus Flycatcher captured at the University of the Philippines (Diliman Campus) became my 247th lifebird... looks like I've a lucky streak these past few weeks.
I was also able to add some photos of a few Cuckoo species, much better than my previous ones, in this sortie enjoyed in the company of Philippine Bird Photography eGroup members Neon, Tina, Ixi and Prof. Gerry.
