The Herons
Ricky has been observing these herons or egrets (Do we have an ornithologist in the house) for almost two months. They are perched on a tree on the corner of Gil Puyat and Reposo, right across Mapua; you can spot them mornings and at certain times in the afternoon. Beautiful birds, but the reason for their presence might not be so happy. The Makati CBD is not their natural habitat, so we’re guessing their natural habitat may no longer be livable.

The moment I saw the photo of the three birds above, I thought they were familiar, until I read the caption. I saw these birds in the same area just this week while I was at the PhilHealth office in Gil Puyat. Very beautiful birds. It was kind of odd though because I only see birds like that in bodies of water along NLEX whenever I travel north.
