Magnificent Riflebird

Ptiloris magnificus
14 October 2015
Thank you Vogelcommando :)
Mine too. Wallace's Standardwing, King-of-Saxony Bird-of-paradise, Kokako & Marvelous Spatuletail are the rest of my most wishes species to see.
 
Wonderful photo of a beautiful bird - I found it to actually be quite tough to capture the iridescence on the shield.
Do you know how many they have? :)
 
did they have Magnificent Bird-of-paradise as well? On my species list for the park that is what I put, but now I don't know if I had written "magnificent" in my notes alongside "king", "lesser", etc - meaning Magnificent Riflebird and later remembered it wrong - or if they did actually have Magnificent Bird-of-paradise at the time.
 
They have pair of Magnificent Bird-of-paradise. Also Twelve-wired, Red, Lesser & King. I don't think I saw Greater BoP, though.

excellent, that means I'm not an idiot! :D

It also means the Magnificent Riflebird is new since when I was there in 2009.
 
:D
Javan Hawk-eagle & Bulwer's Pheasant were nowhere to be found as well.
Website is misleading :(
