The Cavity-Nesting Bird Project

Happy Earth Day 2026!

We are officially back from the field! Sharing with you what we've been up to these past few weeks!!!

Project Kalaw aims to fill critical gaps in the ecology of the Northern Rufous Hornbill and drive local conservation actions through field surveys, habitat & threat assessments, and community engagement. Our work is in support of the evidence-based conservation action of hornbills and their habitats by the IUCN SSC Hornbill Specialist Group.

We are most thankful to The March Fund through the Conservation Leadership Programme for supporting our work.

Project Kalaw Updates!

We recently visited the northernmost section of the Zambales Mountains KBA in Sta. Cruz, Zambales Province, one of our seven sites in the range. Despite a severely fragmented habitat, hornbills continue to persist, giving us hope in creating a better habitat for Philippine hornbills! We are most grateful to the barangay LGU of Tubo-tubo North for welcoming us with open arms 🎉

Stay tuned for more updates!

We are CLP! 🇵🇭
