Rare Birds of Paradise Imported from New Guinea
A dozen rare Birds of Paradise imported from New Guinea arrive in the United States as a gift to Edward Marshall Boehm from Sir Edward Hallstrom. The collection includes Princess Stephanies and Count Raggiana’s, with a warning that exports may be restricted. The birds, aged 2 to 5 years, require acclimation and are fed a mixed diet as Boehm’s aviary plans this breeding effort.
