On mooring the boat Samuel could hear a King Bird displaying. Surely the most spectacular bird we saw on our way back, and one of the best of the trip, was an impressive New Guinea Eagle only 10 metres from the boat. It had been quite a day, but there was more to come. Parrot, the only one of our trip. This book is the essential reference work for Papua New Guinea Pittas, Broadbills and Asities .
Pittas are a gound-dwelling insectivorous species.
Broadbills form a more diverse group - some being highly specialized insectivores, others being fructivores. Useful at the planning stage for a trip to Papua New Guinea. Trust Lonely Planet, however, to rectify that situation. In Bushwalking in Papua New Guinea, author Yvon P russe introduces you to this remote and rugged land. This revised guide offers advice for travellers wanting to explore the landscapes and cultures of this island nation.
