BIRD GUESTS VISIT INDIAN SANCTUARY

Ruff who's tired of people telling him, "You think you've got it rough?"

A wide assortment of migratory birds from places like Siberia and Canada (and other primitive, frozen climes used as prisons) are stopping at the Fulbari Bird Sanctuary in West Bengal, India, like most guests unannounced and looking for food.

Bird lovers are pouring in behind them, binoculars and guide books in hand, to get a glimpse of Siberian Cranes, Greater Flamingo, Common Teal, Yellow Wagtail, Black Talied Godwit, Long Billed Pipit and Ruff (no word on whether Reddy made the trip).

It's estimated that over 100 species of migratory birds fly to India, in search of feeding grounds, to escape the severe winters of home or to catch the latest Shah Rukh Khan movie.
