00:00Alain is the president of Samahang Wild Bird Photographers of the Philippines.
00:07Being a photographer is accidental, actually.
00:11We need to produce an informational material about the conservation of Candaba Swamp.
00:17We were looking for photographers of wild birds.
00:20A while ago, it was hard to get permission from foreign photographers.
00:25So we said, let's take a picture.
00:28That was the next time.
00:30After many hours in the jungle, Alain was able to fulfill his dream.
00:38As always, the Philippine Eagle is the holy grail of a bird photographer in the Philippines.
00:42Of course, it was exciting, very exciting at that time.
00:46The Philippine Eagle has been flying in the jungle for more than a year.
00:52From laying eggs to its growth and flight.
00:56How important is the Philippine Eagle in terms of creating awareness about everything else in the wild?
01:05It's the one who starts the discussion.
01:08Especially, we look at the Philippine Eagle as our own keystone of all species in the Philippines.
01:15From there, we can expand the discussion.
01:19It's not just the Philippine Eagle, there are other wildlife.
01:23His visit to the Philippine Eagle was illustrated in a book.
01:28It started here, on day minus one.
01:32When we saw it in the nest.
01:35Just the parents.
01:37Then, we saw that it had eggs.
01:41It had eggs.
01:43At the 411, the day when it fled.
01:48When we say it fled, it already flew from that tree nest to another tree.
01:54But, it's still there.
01:57As long as it's not chased by its parents, it's still there.
02:03It's taught to fly, it's taught to hunt.
02:07Unfortunately, that's what happened.
02:11Its father was shot.
02:15Here it is.
02:16It was shot 235 times.
02:19Last year, Sinabadan was shot.
02:25Three bullets of air gun were found in his body.
02:29Sinabadan was saved and is now in the care of the Philippine Eagle Foundation.
02:34Sometimes, it's not because of the food, but because of the instinct of hunting.
02:39It's like you're just a shooter, it's like a sport.
