“The Great Philippine Eagle is the largest and rarest bird of prey in the world. Fewer than 800 individuals remain today and their survival is tied to the fate of the last fragments of old-growth forest in the Philippines. In 1977, world-renowned cinematographer, Neil Rettig, filmed the first images of the eagle in the wild, transforming the bird from a mysterious jungle predator into a beloved national symbol.” (iTunes)
