Elegant Tits (Pardaliparus Elegans) are endemic to the Philippines, bringing my endemic photo collection to two. Saw them for the first time at Springs of Living Water Bethesda garden today (Antipolo). I set up expecting only to see Eurasian sparrows and Sunbirds, but I heard a different sound. Something I have not heard before, then I checked out the treetops and found these yellow 10cm long birds actively moving around from branch to branch, it was really hard to photograph them with my all manual setup. I had neck pains after taking pictures of them for an hour. It was all worth it though!

To finish the shoot, I took this
