The Black man who was wrongly accused by a White woman in New York City while he was birdwatching is set to star in a new National Geographic TV series—and he intends to inspire viewers with his lifelong hobby.

Christian Cooper, the lifelong bird-watcher, has been spying crows, cardinals and catbirds since he was ten.

The channel announced this week that the 59-year-old will host a new nature series called Extraordinary Birder.

"Christian Cooper takes us into the wild, wonderful and unpredictable world of birds."

"Whether braving stormy seas in Alaska for puffins, trekking into rainforests in Puerto Rico for parrots, or scaling a bridge in Manhattan for a peregrine falcon, he does whatever it takes to learn about these extraordinary feathered creatures and show us the remarkable world in the sky above."

In May of 2020, Cooper was bird-watching at The Ramble in Central Park when he asked her to put a leash on her dog. She called the police claiming he was an "African-American man threatening my life."
