Watch Rare Bird Species Thrive and Flourish in Nuvali’s Bird Sanctuary
Indigo-banded Kingfishers, Blue-throated
Bee-eaters, Black-naped Orioles, Chestnut-cheeked Starlings and Glossy Swiftlet
Collocalias.
These species
of birds, among many others, have all found a home in Nuvali.
In partnership with the Wild Bird Club of Philippines, NUVALI opens its Wildlife and Bird Sanctuary for bird walkers, watchers and nature enthusiasts who would like to go beyond typical nature trips. The bird sanctuary has an ecologically sound environment that encourages existing wildlife to live and flourish within NUVALI. Not your usual sightseeing activity, bird walking at Nuvali is the perfect activity for those who would want to fully immerse themselves in the wonders of nature. Viewing decks, gazebos, foot trails and fun and experiential exhibits for bird-watching enthusiasts, families and groups make bird watching an enjoyable outdoor recreational activity.
Endemic bird species chose Nuvali as their home, and so did various migratory birds who have decided to take a quick stop in Nuvali’s scenic landscape. A total of 76 faunal species composed of 62 bird species were recorded through Haribon’s Biological survey of NUVALI, which was conducted last November 19-22 and December 4-6, 2008. Thirteen species or 17% of vertebrate fauna (10 birds, 1 mammal and 2 lizards) are endemic including 2 restricted-range species restricted to the Luzon faunal region. This further highlights Philippine biodiversity, making our country a top destination for bird enthusiasts and nature lovers alike.

Recognizing the need for environmental sustainability, NUVALI continuously
strives to gather support from its stakeholders. They currently encourage
volunteerism programs from schools, companies and organizations to conduct
tree-planting activities within the sanctuary. Apart from its revolutionary
eco-living measures, this is in line with NUVALI’s conservation efforts, being
the country’s first eco-community development.
