Thank you for this wonderful pose and opportunity to photograph you. We all appreciate you

This photo is to create awareness that we have such great biodiversity in the Philippines. We need to protect them against poaching, hunting and environmental damage.

Looks a bit like a Buffy, but not a Buffy. ☺️
