On January 6, 2025, a three-member birding team spotted a remarkable bird species on Lansanas Rd, Bgy. San Pedro, Puerto Princesa, Palawan, Philippines. The stationary observation, lasting 20 minutes, yielded a single finding that has piqued the interest of local bird enthusiasts.

The team, led by Yacho Mashuu, was able to catch a glimpse of a Palawan Frogmouth (Pulutorugu Rara), a bird that is not commonly seen in the area. The Frogmouth is a nocturnal species known for its remarkable camouflage, and this sighting is a significant addition to the region's avifauna records.

While the team did not provide further commentary on their encounter, their observation has sparked excitement among birdwatchers in the region, who are eager to learn more about the habits and habitats of this elusive species.
