Observation details
I am not sure how Patrice tracked this one. It was early and the bird was barely stirring we got to it. Patrice may simply have stumbled on it. It was quite near a little used trail. Eventually it began to move more. It has the velvety blackness of the Short-tailed Paradigalla in PNG. The striking green caruncle does make it look like a bird-of-paradise. When we exited the forest we saw another individual from the bus. Photos of that bird appear below.
