The Philippine Eagle

By Fredway | April 4, 2008

Philippines are known with its unique wildlife that is very wonderful to see. One of the famous wildlife animals that can be found in the Philippines is the Philippine Eagle. Philippine Eagle is on of the largest, rarest, and to be considered as the most powerful birds in the world. This bird is listed as one of the many endangered vertebrate species in the world. The Philippine Eagle can be seen in the few places in Luzon, Samar, leyte and Mindanao.

Due to the birds is listed as one of the many endangered vertebrate species in the world. Many people are alarm and find a way to conserve these magnificent species, The Philippine Eagle Foundation is being built. A private, non-profit organization dedicated to conserve the Philippine Eagles and preserving their habitat. It is a reflection of the foundation’s hard work that captive breeding experiments have been successfully conducted in their Philippine Eagle Center for many years now.

Philippine Eagle’s life span is at least 41 years of longevity, it is still unknown what will be the lifespan of the eagles in the wild, but base on the fact wild Philippine eagle birds face many exigencies of the forest environment rather than an eagle which is kept captive. Wild eagles will have shorter life span than the captive eagles.

The table below summarizes the patterns of juvenile development as observed by Kennedy (1985).

Philippine Airsoft Activities

By Fredway | March 28, 2008

Airsoft is a new sport here in the Philippines where many teenagers; man or woman play. Airsoft is just similar to paintball a combat sport which all the participants hit there opponent by a (6 mm or 8mm) plastic BBs (small, spherical balls) to eliminate them from the game. To join in t his game you need obviously a airsoft gun, mask/goggles, clothing, and Tactical gear.

Airsoft Gun

Airsoft guns are just replicas of real firearms, but the mechanism of a real gun and an airsoft gun is different, airsoft gun just pushing out 6-mm or 8-mm plastic balls diameter projectiles.

Mask/Goggles

Mask/Goggles is definitely important if you are playing Airsoft Gun, It is needed so that your eye will be protected.

Clothing

Most players typically wear military battle-dress uniforms known as BDUs consisting of separate pants and shirts or jackets when playing, because it – just as with real soldiers – aids concealment from adversaries. Some players will go as far as to use a ghillie suit, which breaks up the human outline by having sticks, leafs, and items like that in the fabric/netting.

Malapascua Island Diving Adventures

By Fredway | February 26, 2008

Malapascua is actually a diver’s paradise. Later a tourist diver discovered the sunken Island “Monad Shoal” where you can watch Thresher Sharks, the only place in the world to watch Tresher Sharks! Today, the majority of the resorts offer full-service dive facilities. In fact more than half of the visitors to the island are divers and dive aficionados.

Getting to Malapascua Island is a 4/5hrs. Bus trip from Cebu North Bus Terminal; Passing from the northern part of Cebu, places like Maya, Daanbantayan, and the northernmost point of Cebu Mainland. Upon the arrival in Maya wharf, you can find a lot of boats which will take you to the island approximately 30minutes or so, depending on the weather. But the trip back to the mainland usually stops at 3:00/4:00 in the afternoon. Rent a boat by a so called special trip that costs you about 600-800 Php!!

is a perfect getaway for beach relaxation and scuba diving. The accommodation, the local people in Malapascua are very friendly, the way they treated the tourist are world class. Bars and resorts in Malapascua are world class with lots of Italian, Korean, Filipino, and Japanese food cuisines are so very delicious. The Island of is one of the many places in Daanbantayan that is famous for swimming — snorkeling — diving – fishing – sailing – boating — exploring – and just relaxing.

Commented by Brian from UK

Mt. Kanlaon and Mt. Makawiwili Mountaineering Adventures

By Fredway | February 19, 2008

Kanlaon Volcano, or Mount Kanlaon (also spelled Canlaon), is a stratovolcano on Negros Philippines. It is located between Negros Occidental and Negros Oriental provinces of the Philippines, approximately 36 km southeast of Bacolod City.

In ancient times, native priests (babaylan) would climb up the mountain and do some rituals when they will have a good harvest in the season or when they will have a special ceremony. They offer gifts as a sign of respect, for giving thanks for there safety and other stuff they want. Canlaon City now stands beside the mountain.

Kanlaon has an elevation of 2,435 meters and a base diameter of 30 km and is known with pyroclastic cones and craters that are so magnificent to look at. The summit of Kanlaon contains a broad elongated northern caldera with a crater lake that is so big, and a lot of wild berries you can find. A smaller but more active crater lies in the south; it is so dangerous that they don’t allow any person to enter.

Mt. Makawiwili ridge is a towering 8000 feet high peak that is situated between two mountain peaks among the many ranges of Mt. Kanlaon. It takes 4 hrs. to reach Mt. Makawiwili from the foot of Mt. Kanlaon, and It can be reach in approximately 9.5 kilometers from the foot of Mt. Kanlaon and 167.5 kilometers from the provincial capital of Dumaguete City.

Mt. Makawiwili is also called the “saddle in the sky”, an appropriate moniker because of its similarity to the object, and a breath taking view when you reach the peak of Mt. Makawiwili. It is an elevated platform that many climbing enthusiasts and sightseers consider as a perfect vantage point for monitoring the volcanic activities of Mt. Kanlaon, for observing the many life forms in the area specially the preserve thick forest, large trees, and for appreciating all of Mt. Kanlaon’s phenomenal views. Because of its 8000 feet high it is ideal for setting up radio communication satellites, and with its wide space most mountaineers will spend a quick rest or spent the whole night camping.
