RFI – Bohol – Philippines

I have been to Philippines twice recently but not to Bohol and have sent Tom some info. If anyone else wishes to see that, I can forward. Philip —–Original Message—– From: Birding-Aus [mailto:birding-aus-bounces@birding-aus.org] On Behalf Of Thomas Wilson Sent: Sunday, 21 June 2015 1:47 PM To: birding aus Subject: [Birding-Aus] RFI – Bohol – Philippines Hi All I will be fortunate enough to be visiting Bohol Island in the Philippines in late-October for a work-related conference. I am hoping that I will be able to add on at least one day of personal time to fit in some birding at the end of my trip before heading back to Sydney. While I know it is a bit more expensive that going it alone, I am looking for any recommended guides that could do a day trip (or 2 days possibly depending on how flight connections might work). I have never been to any part of the Philippines before but will have limited time. In prior trips to Delhi and Chiang Mai where I had similar time limitations, I found a guide who knew the calls and the good spots helped me make the most of the time I did have. I have seen the name of Ryan Sugala on some trip reports, so he may be an option but any others would also be of interest. I will almost definitely not have time for a longer Philippines-wide tour and I have no discretion over the time of year I visit. If I also ended up with a day to spare in Manila, would there be any recommendations of sites that may be easy to reach from the centre and/or a guide that could assist there? I am working in the assumption that the best field guide/book to have is “A Guide to the Birds of the Philippines” by Kennedy, Gonzales et al. Cheers Tom Wilson
