Photos and videos of wild birds found in the Philippines. We travel all over the Philippines to document and take pictures of birds. Our goal is to make this site a resource of information and images about wild birds of the Philippines.
Stripe Headed Rhabdornis
STRIPE HEADED RHABDORNIS
Rhabdornis mystacalis
Rhabdornithidae Family
Bird #80 - December 2008
This is a Philippine endemic. We are positive on the id of the one in Caylabne. That was a Wild Bird Club trip! Not 100% sure of the id of the photos from Makiling.The the Stripe Headed is the more common Rhabdornis though, so it is most likely to be that rather than the Grand or Stripe Breasted which are uncommon. The one in the Makiling photo is probably a juvenile.
