WORDLESS WEDNESDAY - GRANDMA'S FAMOUS STORY-HUNGRY CROW

Wow !!! Such a cute sight of crow munching a medhu vadai . None will be there without knowing the grandma's story , Hungry Crow and Vada . We enjoyed the sight of a crow slowly flew down , watched out for humans , came to the vada in the track and then started munching it . Isn't a lovely sight with my 4 yr old daughter? . Caught this sight in Coimbatore Junction through the window of the passenger train to Shoranur .
