Thanks Leana! I was lucky to get more shots this time. I really love its face which is shown in pics 3-5. :)

Nice spot Agnes!

Yes bayucca, another one this morning. :-) Although it matches (at least in my eyes) T. parra parra's pictures, I'm still anxious. T.parra parra is listed as rare and has been recorded only in Mindanao, Palawan and Leyte...
