I recommend listening to Phil Gregory talking about Birds of Paradise & Bowerbirds (& his recent book on these birds) on BirdCallsRadio. It displays his deep knowledge of these two groups of birds plus has interesting asides re. conservation, local cultures, etc. It was a real privilege to go out looking for bowerbirds & Australian BoPs in Queensland with him this winter both around his (then) home at Cassowary House and later in the Iron Range.
It would have been impossible to foresee that, when we first met at school in Southampton in the early 1960s, he'd end up as a world authority on this group of Australasian birds.
