I Am a Birdman0A 62-year-old Indian man named Joseph Sekar feeds nearly 2,000 to 4,000 parakeets in Chennai every day.
In 2004, a 9.1-magnitude earthquake in the Indian Ocean caused a tsunami, which is an enormous, destructive sea wave. Sekar saw two homeless parakeets flying after the natural disaster, so he fed them. The birds brought other hungry ones to Sekar, and those birds brought even more hungry birds.
