Thanks John, for reminding me of that document.
The snake is something completely different than I thought. It is reasonable that it appeared here with many water sources in the area
Thanks for your comments, tomk3886 !
Hi John, are you sure this is Ingerophrynus philippinicus. I rather think it is Rhinella marina ttps://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/553515-Rhinella-marina.
Philippine Toad is not common, except Palawan https://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/65871-I...
Amazing eyes, Dan.
Thanks for the comment, John. The bird was spotted near Hundred Islands.
It is also called Common Oressinoma: https://www.learnaboutbutterflies.com/An...
Hi John, I think it is a planthopper of Thabena sp. In this document https://www.researchgate.net/publication... they tell:
The genus Thabena comprises 14 species distributed in continental China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand and Réunion Island

Nice picture SukanyaDatta! Even it is a sunbird, it has the size of a sparrow.
So I guess it is capable of catching spiders and insects too.
It is a butterfly with worn out wings. You will find similar ones among the pictures on the link I gave you
We have this bird also in Noway. So it also fits in the mission Global Flight,
