The real Dr. Doolittle: how the British became the master of the wild birds

39-year-old photographer Steve gray from Whitwell, Derbyshire, doing what every child dreams of when watching the movie "Dr. Doolittle". Steve has gained the trust of wild animals, and now forest birds and small rodents safely approach the photographer and eat from his hand, well he takes pictures with an incredibly close range.

Steve gray three years spent to earn the trust of forest birds, voles and rats. Usually these animals are timid and not approach the man, but to Steve without fear come trick-or-treating. Unusual friendship helps Steve to take photos of birds and animals from a very close distance.

Steve was always coming to the same place with food and soon found that the birds began to recognize him. After that, Steve decided to pull off the same trick with rats and voles.

Steve says that some of the birds he still has not managed to tame and probably never will.

The most difficult for the bird to make the first move. But if one day she will take food from you hands, it will arrive and the second time".
