Bird of paradise, in this case, is not a bird but a flower.
I stumbled upon it, hidden in a private garden.
The curious thing is that their flowering period is in winter
and early spring and my photo was taken in summer, a couple of days ago.
The plant origin is South Africa. However, it can be found almost in all continents.
Wikipedia is where you'll find more information about it, especially photos with different
colors.
