We visited the bird sanctuary, included in our itinerary to explore the provinces of SOCSKSARGEN region. Upon arriving to the entrance of the sanctuary, we are welcomed with a vast Palm Tree plantation. Gladly, we are welcomed from the doors by its owner. We were the sole visitors that time. Given the traditional conical wide brim hats that you have to don throughout your walking tour to avoid getting pooped on, we excited sauntered and frolicked around the densely bird-populated area. Just a warning to would-be visitors that smothering with anti-insect mosquito would come in handy, I encountered many insect bites. I also love the bamboo area that apparently is a good backdrop for your social media photographs.
The sanctuary was created as a habitat for birds so that explains why the place and commute is far. The place is good for birds bc it is full of trees and there is also trail to follow for visitors. I've also seen some animals and I believe there's still more room to develop.
An entrance fee of 20Php per head upon entering santuary but I noticed while roaming, no birds can be seen only caged alligator, monitor lizard and wild boar. Possible the birds find another place much homey for them to stay no people around.
Been here several times and will keep on coming back if there's a chance. Recommended for nature lover, birds enthusiast and to those who just want to have a relaxing minutes away from the stresses. You will be amazed how these lovely birds make this place their home.
This sanctuary holds about 25,000 birds from herons to egrets and it's as close to a National Geographic experience to see them up close and see their nests.
My advise: wear pants and closed shoes, also wear a hat to protect your head from the droppings. In the afternoon around 430 to 5pm many of them fly back. Also bring mosquito repellent too.
