The Bird
of Paradise
The Bird of Paradise is the most gorgeous
of living
creatures. From the crest of his head
to the last
feather in his magnificent tail he
is a blaze of
brilliant color. And very proud
he is of his good
looks so much so that a number of
these beautiful
birds will assemble together merely
in order to show
themselves off to one another. In
New Guinea,
where the Bird of Paradise lives,
the natives call
these gatherings dancing parties;
but the poor hen
bird, who is not at all good-looking,
is not invited.
