Agas-Agas Bridge - RP's tallest

gerry@callezaragosa.com (gerryruiz photography) — Tue, 11 Aug 2009 02:17:28 GMT

Newly opened Agas-Agas Bridge in Sogod, Southern Leyte - the tallest bridge in the Philippines with a height of 75 meters and bridge length of 1.5km - will soon be the haven for extreme sports enthusiasts into bungee jumping, rope jumping, pana-gliding, rappelling, zip lining and the like.

Inaugurated August 9, 2009, the bridge provides a vital link in the Maharlika Highway connecting Luzon to Mindanao via the Liloan Ferry Terminal in Southern Leyte. The modern bridge now provides a safe and reliable link in the landslide-prone area of the Agas-Agas section of the national highway cutting down travel time by one and a half hours.

Sunbirds & Spiderhunters

gerry@callezaragosa.com (gerryruiz photography) — Wed, 02 Mar 2011 04:15:05 GMT

The sunbirds and spiderhunters are a family, Nectariniidae, of very small passerine birds. There are 132 species in 15 genera. The family is distributed throughout Africa, southern Asia and just reaches northern Australia. Most sunbirds feed largely on nectar, although they will also take insects, especially when feeding young. Fruit is also part of the diet of some species. Their flight is fast and direct on their short wings.

The sunbirds have counterparts in two very distantly related groups: the hummingbirds of the Americas and the honeyeaters of Australia. The resemblances are due to convergent evolution due to the similar nectar-feeding lifestyle. Some sunbird species can take nectar by hovering like a hummingbird, but usually perch to feed.
