Unfortunately my busy work schedule doesn't allow me to do a full trip report. But I did just want to mention the independent guide I had on Palawan who got me encounters with all of the island's endemics. He knew all key species instantly by sight and sound, and was super hard working, refusing to give up on seeing some species even after I'd told him I thought we'd tried hard enough. Just great. He's also interested in mammals, amphibians, and reptiles, especially the herps, so snake fans out there have someone who will cater to their interests as well. He gave me permission to post his contact information on this forum. PM me for his phone number if you want.Will Cabanillas<a href="mailto:seatosummit.1003@gmail.com">seatosummit.1003@gmail.com</a>2. Had a short time in Cebu and met a van driver who said he had a bird guide friend for Cebu, which is great because Cebu is not part of the usual "circuit" of Philippine birdwatching despite the (vanishingly slim) chance of seeing the Cebu Flowerpecker as well as the couple other endemics on the island. Unfortunately, I was on my way to the airport when I met him, so I couldn't try the guide and can't personally vouch for his services. But if you're in the neighborhood, I think it would certainly be worth a try. The driver's name is Butchoy and he gave me permission to post a picture of his business card on this forum. Hope this information is helpful.</blockquote>
