Welcome to' Crow Man of India,' Navin Khanna

I, Navin Khanna, S/O Mr. M.L Khanna, have been intimately interacting with crows and have been studying their behaviour for more than 50 years. My long standing friendship with crows earned me the sobriquet 'Crow Man of India'.

This friendship was given lead coverage under the heading 'Nature' by 'Limca Book of records' 1995, 2002 and 2009 and other media and also a film made on this by channel 'Nine' Australia. "Navin Khanna's relationship with these highly intelligent birds goes back to more than 50 years.

In these years he has not only developed a special bond with them but also made some remarkable observations. Currently he has 29 crow friends and each one has been given a special name that reflects the character of that bird. Navin calls out "Kauva, kauva",they respond and come flying to his terrace or the district park. Once they arrive, while some literally eat out of his hand , others hold a couple of playing cards in their beaks and proceed to have an informal game with Khanna. Khanna continues his association with crows and they with him signifying a trust which is rare."

I was born in 1945 in Ferozepur(Punjab). My wife's name is Sunila. I have one son 'Saurabh' and one daughter 'Shambhavi'. The knack of friendship with crows is continuing with the third generation as well with my grandchildren Shaurya, Yuvan , Saanvi and Siddhant.
