Palawan Flycatcher

PALAWAN FLYCATCHER
Ficedula platenae
Family Muscicapidae

Bird # 371 - September 2012
L 110 mm (4 1/2")
endemic, uncommon

Iwahig Prison and Penal Farm

This small bird likes the darker parts of the forest and seems to like hiding and darting behind bamboo tangles. It can be difficult to see well compared to some other flycatchers. But it is well worth the effort to see this Philippine endemic.

We first saw this bird in 2012 and we got our first photos in 2013. Hopefully we encounter it again in the future it is such a handsome bird and a delight to see.
