Ayala Alabang is a good place for birding. There are a lot of fruiting and flowering trees and bodies of water. We have always enjoyed walking around Alabang. It is even more enjoyable now that we are familiar with the neighborhood birds.

So far, we have recorded 78 wild bird species inside the village. We have photos of 66 different of those birds. All of the pictures in this gallery were taken inside the village.
