The Cavity-Nesting Bird Project

Project Kalaw Updates in the South!

Hundreds (or even thousands!) of hornbills once soared across the forests of southern Zambales Mountains—an awe-inspiring sight now left mostly to memory. During recent visits to our sites in Masinloc and Iba, team members Jhaynhell and Jayson were reminded of both the loss and the hope that remains. Though hornbills have grown rarer and their habitats increasingly fragmented, pockets of forest still stand resilient. We hold on to the hope that these remaining strongholds will continue to serve as safe havens—places where hornbills can endure, recover, and reclaim their skies.

We are most thankful to the barangay LGUs and the warm community members for embracing Project Kalaw.
