Loves food as much as you do!!
A Pied Crested Cuckoo (Chatak) happily feeding on a moth catterpillar. I wonder how can it enjoy something as prickly!!

Lovely moment captured well! Yes, I know that caterpillr sets up ugly welts and itching in humans..

Good capture...a bit of contrast and brightness would have been nice....I have seen Common hawk cuckoo's remove the outer layer and feed on this.....same goes with the pipits as well.
