Of all the times I have been in the philippines, have never seen a bird or hear thier sound.?

Question

Why is that? Is it because all the birds died from the smog pollution or is because the people ate them? Does anyone have the correct answer?

Answer 1

I LIVE in the capital city and I SEE and HEAR birds every single day. In fact, my car does get the occassional bird poo which is very much proof that they exist here. Maybe in the few times that you were here you stayed in a hotel or in a mall which pretty much drones out the noise of the birds. There are even some malls here where birds come in freely.

Answer 2

there have to be birds, it cant be pollution, if that were true all the pidgons in london would be dead...
the stinky bird egg delicacy is like 100 year old eggs or something, but it sounds like asking for salmonella to me

Answer 3

Where the heck have you been?

Head out into the provinces, you'll find birds.

Answer 4

if u just stay in the capital city, it's unlikely that u will ever hear birds singing.

Answer 5

maybe they're depressed little birds . they just hang around the nest eating the worms from mescal bottles.

Answer 6

Ummmm
They die of pollution
and then they eat them.

Also, they have a delicacy dish
which is a raw buried egg (can't
remember how long it is buried in
the dirt for) and when 'ripe' it is
eaten. Do not recommend it,
but for them it is a delicacy.....

so, no eggs, no birds.

Good point.

Answer 7

There are tons of birds and I am in Manila........
