Philippines Sierra Madre, Samar & Negros 3rd - 9th April 2018 Leader: Rob Hutchinson Participant: Hans J rnvall Visayan Plumed-Warbler Rob Hutchinson / Birdtour Asia The Philippines is without a doubt one of the worlds endemic hotspots with 250 already recognized, a number which is rising all the time as taxonomy advances in the archipelago. While it s easy to see a fair proportion on a well planned trip up to 160 on our regular three-week tours for example to see the remainder takes a lot of dedication, and in the case of Hans on his eight visit to the archipelago, the number of potential new birds is low relative to the efforts required to reach and see them.
In the afternoon we switched targets to one which is very likely to be split in the future. ‘Samar Crow’ is a form of Slender-billed Crow which is both vocally and ecologically distinct from other in the complex.
