Chakor bird

described in Hindu mythology that thrives only on the moon-light for its food. Moon-light is supposed to its nectar or Amrita.  Adi Sankaracharya also refers to this bird  and is supposed to have drunk to  its brim the moonlight of  Goddess Shakthi or Amba’s smile, which is so sweet that it benumbs the beak of the bird. To counteract this numbness, the bird goes to get a drink of the  moonlight compared to a ‘sour gruel’ when compared to the godly smile. The association of Chakora and Chandra, the moon god has inspired a number of folk love stories in India.
