Bird-of-Paradise's perch in the lowland forests of the Bird's Head Peninsula in western New Guinea. Watch as a diminutive male practices his courtship display. He aims to impress females with a combination of velvety red plumage, two emerald-green feather disks that bobble on wiry shafts-plus fan-shaped side feathers and abrupt about-face dance moves.
