Bird Watching







BIRD WATCHING

Feel closer to nature and observe the migratory birds of the peninsula. Located in Sibacan, Pto. Rivas, City of Balanga, the site is one of the few in the country that has the highest waterbird count as recorded by the Asian Waterbirds Census.

 

10 REASONS TO GO OUT BIRDWATCHING:

Birding is a quest. You set out to see the birds - but the prize you come back with can only be described as happiness.

  1. FUN & ADVENTURE

BIG fun. Something deep seems to get fulfilled. There’s an adrenalin rush you get whenever you go out birding.

  1. THE BIRDS!

You’ll be amazed at the variety of songs, shapes, sizes, colors and charms of our feathered friends.

  1. DISCOVERY

There’s always something new to be learned whether it’s about birds, nature, your companions or yourself.

  1. TRAVEL

Whether its your own backyard or jungle wilds, your search for birds will bring you places.

  1. THE GREAT OUTDOORS

Being outside under the sun is always a breath of fresh air. Experiencing the outdoors gives you a role in keeping the environment in good shape.

  1. SOLITUDE

There’s a special pleasure in going out alone to bird. Your head clears, your senses open up and nature becomes your friend.

  1. COMPANIONSHIP

A birder need never be lonely. You’ll never know who you might meet or run into. The joy of seeing a bird is best when shared.

Birding gets you vertical. It gets you outside and walking.

  1. IT WON’T COST YOU MUCH

All you need for this hobby is a notebook, a field guide, a hat and a pair of binoculars. And maybe insect repellant.
