Migratory birds make stop-over in Bataan

A large group of migratory birds have temporarily taken up residence in Dinalupihan, Bataan, according to a report on GMA’s Unang Balita.

 

The birds are egrets, found in Asia and Europe. Their global population is estimated at just 10,000 adults, making them a vulnerable species in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.

 

 

The egrets are expected to stay in the country from August until some time in September. — Bea Montenegro/TJD, GMA News
