Subic, Philippines

1/25 and 1/26/2026 Subic, (Two hours west of Manila) Philippines: We did not have long to bird but we SO thank Sonny (hired through Emerald Manor Hotel) for driving us all over Subic in the “stop and go” fashion of birders. He was awesome and so understanding! Due to a medical issue, we were restricted to car photography. However, even poor sightings were exciting to us and we have included everything here alphabetically by day.
