*******************
There is a man in Nepal who can talk to birds. When he calls like a crow, hundreds of these black birds come. They listen to him when he tells them to be quiet, and they go away when he tells them to leave. He can imitate the calls of more than 200 birds. People call him “bird brother.” He goes to schools and talks about nature and birds. There are more than 800 types of birds in Nepal, and many of them are in danger. He wants to save them.(by Prof. Douglas Jarrell)
