    So awesome. Borneo and Papua New Guinea still have so many secrets I bet. I'd love to go, however my fear of heights would be tough in those tree top platforms, and heard it can be quite dangerous still. At any rate I could watch films on those birds forever. Evolution at its finest.

    That video was gorgeous and is an excerpt from a show on Birds of Paradise which I have seen on NatGeo Wild I believe. It was either one or two hours and gets into lots of detail not only on the various birds but some of the camera techniques involved. Well worth watching.
    Your discus are talking to you....are you listening

    Beautiful. I've seen a documentary a while ago on these birds but I had honestly forgot about it. I'm glad you brought it up. TFS

    Thank you. Beautiful video! I shared it with my mom. She loves birds, has lots of types, mostly finch. She rescued a red robin she calls Bob that she taught to mimick her whistles and she had a baby hummingbird also that was amazing to watch fly around her all day. I remember as a child she would tell me she's a bird.

    It's especially great to watch the video in the comfort of my basement, with no humidity, no bugs, no slimy stuff around...
