A new species of bird of paradise has been hiding under our noses. This is the male Vogelkop superb bird of paradise, found in Western New Guinea. It was originally thought to be the same bird as the famous “smiley face“ superb bird of paradise. Recent observations show that their courtship characteristics are different.
