After recovering from his TTX poisoning, Dr. Marshall Westwood decided to take a vacation. An avid birder, he decided to go to Papua New Guinea with Bill Whitlatch, an ornithologist friend of his from Montana Technical Institute. Three days into their trip, Bill netted a bird with an orange body and black wings and head for closer study. Dr. Westwood was very curious and asked Bill if he could have a closer look at the bird.

They are generally about 23 centimeters long with strong legs and a powerful beak. Their encounter was the first time anyone had…
