Now that's a nice list. I'll be at Pilsen in May - would be nice to find a similar mix in there still.
 
To this list I would add Omei Shan liocichla too, I saw a pair during my visit last year.

Jana it's amazing you still remember all these species! I was a keeper in this aviary after its opening in 2006. We were able to breed OrientalGreenfinch and Yellow-breasted Bunting in that year. In that time there was also Siberian Rubythroat (Luscinia calliope).
 
Just ´ve checked the memory card of my digital camera...

BTW
I must admit that I follow the great work with endangered bird species you do in Philippines. My deepest respect!

You keep on surprising me Jana.
Thank you for the credit. However, I think I was just lucky enough to be in the right place in the right time and most importantly, work with the right people who have been fighting for the right case and doing great work years before I came to the Philippines.
