Nature. Birds of the gods / Tigress Productions and Thirteen in association with British Broadcasting Corporation and wnet.org ; produced and directed by Harvey Jones.
Living in the depths of the New Guinean Rainforest are birds of unimaginable color and beauty. When Europeans first saw the plumes of these fabulous creatures in the sixteenth century, they believed they must be from heaven and called them Birds of Paradise. The people of New Guinea make even greater claims. They say the birds possess supernatural powers and magic. But to find these birds in New Guinea and to witness their extraordinary mating displays is one of the toughest assignments.
