The Call of the Wild: Nepal Man can Allegedly Imitate Sounds of 251 Bird Species

Maybe you can recognize a laughing gull during mating season. Or, perhaps you can spot the squawk of a Caspian Tern. Whether you're a bird watcher or you just have an interest in the call of the wild, Nepal-native Gautam Sapkota has a knack for picking up the language of the birds.

Sapkota, who is fondly known in his hometown as "charidada" or "bird brother" recently made a series of sounds on a roof top to call a "crow conference" right before dusk.

"I told them to come, sit, be quiet and fly away," said Sapkota, a 30-year-old school dropout who has been doing "crow shows" at schools since 2005 to entertain students and raise awareness about nature and the conservation of birds, according to the New York Daily News.

This astonishing individual claims that he can imitate the sounds of 251 birds--a talent he hopes will one day be recognized by Guinness World Records.

At this time, he is hoping to broaden his bird language abilities with the sound of a crane to remixes of Nepali songs.

"I want to preserve the sounds of birds which may eventually become extinct, by keeping them in recordings," he said, via the news organization.

As 871 bird species in Nepal face extinction, many believe that this bird enthusiasts natural talent could help preserve some of those going under.
