THE CHIRPING of birds is more than just a pleasant sound for Nagpur-based Rohan Chakravarty. During his visits to the woods, the wildlife geek keenly lends his ear to these high-pitched sounds and tries to identify the birds. “More than just spotting the birds, it is their behaviour that fascinates me. Mostly, bird-watchers want to see different birds and tick them off their list. I would like to see that changing,” says the 31-year old. For his second book, Bird Business, Chakravarty has illustrated around 100 birds and described their unique behavioural pattern alongside. The book was recently launched at Hornbill House, Bombay Natural History Society.
