King Bird of Paradise

Jurong Birdpark, Singapore

Scientific name: Cicinnurus regius (Linnaeus, 1758). This bird is a female.

The female is drab for camouflage in the nest.

As far as I know, this is the only photo of a live female Cicinnurus regius on the internet. The only other photo is of a dead one at the Zoological Museum Amsterdam.

Distribution: Lives in lowland forests of Papua New Guinea. King Bird of Paradise stamps are here.
