    In Quezon City the University of Philippines campus is one of the best birdwatching sites near the capital. The tree tops were full of small green birds called Lowland WhiteEyes. They filled thr niche taken by Blue Tits in Europe. Wondered of they were related to your Silver Eye?

    There are no distinguishing feathers on this chick but I think it is probably a baby Robin.
    I hope you out him back.

    My olive tree is getting loads of olives this year! It is about 10 ft tall and only had it 2 years and it is already giving olives! I bought it at about 5 foot so it has really grown.
