Any idea from where they acquired red bird of paradise? Direct imports from range country?????
(I do believe it cannot for the world be AZA/SSP)

I am not sure, this species was already mentioned in the first post of this thread in 2017 by VC. So if these are the same birds they have had them for atleast 4 years.

There has construction being going on in recent years (the new home of the owner), and therefor open data were cancelled. Now construction it is almost done. But if there will be an open day again in 2020 is not clear yet. They have been anouncing the construction of a new hall for their birds of Paradise (they acquiered most of the Al Wabra collection), maybe that could delay the open day.

Stefan mentioned in 2020 that they aquired most of Al Wabra collection, so they could also have come from this place.
