A pocket-sized book for the highlands is Beehler’s ‘Upland Birds
of NE New Guinea’, a forerunner to his field guide compiled mainly around Wau

G’day Des,
I have a copy of “Birds of New Guinea” by Beehler, Pratt and
Zimmerman, published by Princeton University Press in 1986. It could be hard to
get hold of as it took me quite a while to find a copy. Perhaps if you
“googled” the title you may find one of the bookstores with a copy. If you get
totally desperate I might consider lending my copy!!!
Cheers,
Mark

Hi All,
My wife and I are going to the highlands in August and would
welcome suggestions for field guides for
this region or for PNG in general?
