Noah Styrcker broke a birding record with the most recorded bird sightings for a single year when he finally witnessed the Sri Lanka frogmouth and has a goal of five thousand birds to see before the New Year is up. At last I checked he had 4,342 bird sightings which is still the record but far short of the ideal he had planned when 2015 started and book publishers are already lining up to get this guys work in print and his journey for 2015 available to the reader.
Noah Stycker is an amazing human being and being able to sight half of the known bird species in one year is an arduous task for anyone. Who is Noan Stycker you may ask/ he is somehow connected to the Audubon society which can only mean he is good for wildlife. He is the premier birder of his era being able to capture and photo the most 
reclusive birds out in the wild and Noah is willing to go to all parts of the world to get that five inute sighting and make history is the objectively most difficult of sports which is birding. I mean to be able to capture the Sri Lanka frogmouth you actually have to get don and dirty in Sri Lanka and risk your limbs and neck in the jungle forests where this frog eating meat eater hides out. Strcker was able to get it along with five thousand other birds in the area. Not too shabby for a kid-like humanoid.
