Chakora (Hindu)
Chakora is a legendary bird described in Hindu mythology. It is considered to be a partridge, most likely based on the chukar partridge. In texts such as the Mrcchakatika, it is believed to feed on the beams of the moon (Chandra). The association of the chakora and Chandra has given rise to a number of folk love stories in North India.
On the full moon night, the Chakora cries passionately for the moon, shedding tears of unrequited love for the moon in all her glory shining high in the sky. In the Mahabharata, when Kuchela was on his way to meet Krishna, he saw the Chakora. By the time he returned home after meeting him he was rich! The Chakora is believed to bring good luck.
