birding in West Papua
Just finished a 3 week birding trip in West Papua. Seen almost every possible bop (=Bird of Paradise) and also many small brown interesting jobbies, but not many photos since my main camera broke down after day one.... i managed to get some pictures by digibin with my compact waterproof camera. Conditions were harsh ... A trip report is on the way.

The story behind this bird is that this is supposed to be a genuine wild bird. In the village lives a juvenile bird that was captured. Apparently it attracted this adult bird. During our stay, the adult only came into the village once. It was not afraid though.
