00:02While we're on our way there,

00:04some people are already welcoming us.

00:06Let's zoom in!

00:08What's the hype here?

00:16Yup, those are dolphins.

00:18If the weather is good and we're lucky,

00:20we'll see some dolphins here.

00:22See?

00:24My fish are just the right size.

00:26There are two protected areas in Negros Oriental.

00:28Apo Island and Balinsasayao Twin Lakes Natural Park.

00:32This is one of the conservation areas

00:34in Balinsasayao Twin Lakes.

00:36Are you familiar with this place?

00:38This is Pako.

00:40Out of the 200 species of fish here,

00:42only 12 can be eaten.

00:44How does it taste?

00:46This is the head.

00:48Try it.

00:50This is the...

00:52This is really fresh.

00:54It's delicious.

00:56Go ahead.

00:58Here in Balinsasayao Twin Lakes,

01:00you can do birdwatching.

01:02Even if the weather is bad,

01:04the birds will still come to visit us.

01:08This is where I met

01:10the former bird hunter Kuya Rico.

01:12You said you're a bird hunter.

01:14Is this the place

01:16where the birds come to?

01:18Yes,

01:20because this is not yet

01:22a proclaimed protected area.

01:24The law here is not yet strict.

01:26What we do here

01:28is hunting.

01:30Before, we just waited

01:32for the fruit trees

01:34because that's where the birds go.

01:36To get their food?

01:38But there was an incident

01:40that stopped Kuya Rico

01:42from catching the birds.

01:44When we were sent to Dumbaguete,

01:46we went there for a seminar.

01:48That's when it really started.

01:50Our mindset changed.

01:52What does it feel like

01:5420 plus years ago

01:56when you were the one

01:58who caught the birds

02:00and now you're the one

02:02who helps them

02:04sustain their lives?

02:06A lot of people

02:08used to come here

02:10to catch the birds.

02:12Some of them were endangered

02:14because we only see them here.

02:16Now, they're coming back

02:18because of birdwatching activities

02:20and bird photography.

02:22Just by taking pictures

02:24and looking at them,

02:26you won't be able

02:28to catch all of them.

02:30That's why we have a game

02:32where the birds live.

02:34We're going to play a game.

02:38We're going to show

02:40an image of a bird.

02:42We just need to guess

02:44what kind of bird it is.

02:46If you don't get it right,

02:48there will be a punishment.

02:50For the punishment,

02:52you just have to imitate

02:54the bird's face in the picture.

02:56You can do it, Behaross!

03:56This might be one of the hardest ones.
