With only 400 pairs estimated left in the wild, the realm of our National Bird is still under threat.

The Philippine Eagle or Haring Ibon represents more than a nation, but its natural resources as well.
Along the mountainous spine of the Central Panay Mountain Range lives one of the most threatened hornbills in the world: the Dulungan Hornbill (Rhabdotorrhinus waldeni). Learn more about the conservation work for this species on the island of Panay.
We published “State of the Philippine Birds” to provide up-to-date information on the changing state of Philippine Birds. It is used to serve as guidance in developing better strategies for the conservation of birds in the country.
