His name is C. Sekhar. He has been feeding about 2000 parrots daily on his terrace with rice boiled especially for them morning and evening. This man who is a Camera technician who owns a Camera shop, systematically arranges wooden planks on his terrace and serves the feed to the birds The 62 years Old from Chennai City, India, uses 30 kg of rice every day to feed the parrots. The parrots also patiently wait till he completes the serving and then they have their meals. This he has been doing it for last 25 years and he already sold 20 sovereigns of Gold belonging to his wife to feed these birds. Birds they recognize him and they refuse to take the feed at the hands of others. So he doesn’t even travel at all. He is living in a rented house and since this house is situated in prime locality this has become an expensive property and the owner wants to sell it. For owning this property this gentleman is thinking of selling his Vintage collection of 4000 Cameras owned by him so that the dining hall of the birds will be saved. Hats off to this gentleman for his service to the birds for last 25 years! Without receiving any help from anyone. His love and dedication towards the welfare of birds is highly appreciated! I really wonder how can one sacrifice one’s life for the birds like this? What do you feel about this gentleman and his selfless work for the welfare of the birds! Please respond, your response will be highly appreciated as usual! Thanks!

It is so awesome that this man does this for the birds. There are many people that feed birds but I have never heard of anyone who has gone to the extent that he has. I hope he doesn't have to move and lose the birds little dining hall.

I salute the man for feeding those birds for 25 years and it costs him a lot doing that. However, I think it is so much that he has to sell his Vintage collection of 4000 cameras so that he can dave the dining hall of the birds. What about for his future like they will grow old and get sick? Sometimes, we have to also think of ourselves.

Really wonderful work that this man does. They will love him an awful lot and they are very smart birds also. A similar kind of parrot is loose and wild over here also from the times they were sold in shops and now they are being protected also they adapt very well in Barcelona and Madrid and Malaga also being very warm places. That is one very good person there.

@AKRao24 They are very trusting birds and like I said very smart. The parrot we had would do funny things if she did not like someone that came to the house and made funny noises and made it obvious to the said person that she was not welcome as well. Think its wonderful.

Different people have different way of lifestyles. Yes in a way , if we analyze the situation critically, it looks it looks unnecessasry thing as the birds can have their feed out side in nature like any others they are having! But then it seems that is what he likes to do! Thanks!

@rakski , In fact these birds patiently wait for him to serve their meals by sitting on the trees, means they are not so hungry , that again mean that they had their fill from nature already, no?

That is the big question! Right now the family is also supporting him and that may support after him. But then I think parrots must be having some other sources of their food from the nature, as just simple rice can not keep them healthy and fit!

Yes, you are absolutely true! He is a man who has almost spent 25 years with these birds and regularly feeding them twice a day without expecting anything in return, all at his own expenses! I think it is very difficult for a normal man to do! What do you say?

They are wild and natural parrots staying around! He has not captured them. They just come to feed themselves and fly away after the feed. This is a routine for them for last 25 years! Thanks!
