Combination of stars, sun, lion, eagle and banana leaves are what we can see in Ryan’s tattoo. He called these symbols “Philippines Crest” because these are the symbols that characterizes his Filipino heritage. Living in Cologne, Germany that is far away from his homeland, Ryan still got the pride of presenting his root through his tattoo.

Filipino sword is what Lambo had in his back. To make it more reach in meaning and symbol, he changed the typical handle of sword into a head of Philippine Eagle. For your information, Philippine Eagles are known in the country for their strength, being fast and being agile. At the top of the eagle you can see a sun which is another Philippine symbol. The colors of the tattoo (red, white, blue and yellow) are the colors of Philippine flag.

Considered as critically endangered, with only 180 to 500 species remaining, the Philippine Eagle still holds the crown of being the national bird of the country as proclaimed by then President Fidel Ramos.

First called as monkey-eating eagles as they were believed to have preyed on monkeys when first discovered, the Haribon belongs to the Accipitridae family—world’s largest eagle. They can also be compared to human beings sharing the same practice of monogamy. Once paired, they’ll be partners for the rest of their life cycles. Life expectancy for these birds is calculated to be from 30 to 60 years.

One of the famous captive-bred eagles to be released in the wild was named Kabayan. Unluckily, he was electrocuted. Anyone caught killing this endangered specie will serve twelve years in jail with hefty amount of fines.

Inked at Lotus Land Tattoo, Vancouver BC, Canada

Notes from Rachael:

It’s far from done right now but it’s a tattoo of the haribon eagle, sampaguita, sun and stars, and my last name.

I hope she sends an updated photo once completed.
