Villagers have always marked this location as a place that is sure to be visited by birds of paradise at certain hours, which is around 6-8 am, and 3-5 pm.

At that time, dozens of birds of paradise perched on the branches of trees while dancing and chirping in a cash voice.

If you want to see the attraction of the bird of paradise longer then you have to leave from the village around 3 am or 1 pm. Usually those who arrive early are male paradise.

This is known from the size of a longer tail feather. The male paradise then dances and chirps to attract the attention of the female. The number of birds that can be seen at this location can be dozens of tails. But in the mating season, the number can reach hundreds of tails.

Sometimes, to make more numbers come, local residents make sounds resembling the sounds of paradise.
