bower bird from tropical rainforest of arfak mountains

Vogelkop bower bird is an endemic species in the bird's head peninsula of New Guinea island. Although the bird does not have beautiful plume or feather compared to birds of paradise, it has several unique characteristics. It can build an arch structure made of twigs and dry grass and decorate it to attract female bower birds. To see this bird, tourists need to fly to Manokwari city, the capital of West Papua province in the Republic of Indonesia.
