Sandpiper, off the bottle!


My city-slicker friend, RN, visited ICRISAT a couple of winters ago. While driving him through the campus I pointed the beautiful sight of a pied kingfisher hovering helicopter-like over water to catch a fish.

"I have seen many kingfishers," RN dismissed my excitement.

"Where?" I was curious.

"On beer bottles!" he said.

Likewise, if you are the kind who sees sandpipers only on beer bottles, here is a picture of one.
