        1. That's true, come to think of it.
          And in Philippines, I hardly see any mammals during my photo trips :(

          1. It is well compensated by the fantastic other categories on offer! Posted 8 years ago
            1. True, can't complain.
              Although I always tried to look out for them and several occasions when I see them, its just a mouse or shrew. There are hardly any monkeys in Philippines too.
