OCR Text	Show THE PADDY BIRD. One of the best-known of feathered creatures In India is the paddy bird. A traveler says of him: "The paddy bird is not afflicted with shyness. He is far too lazy to be disturbed by the approach of human beings. So confiding is he that the natives call him the blind heron. I once saw one of these birds standing motionless motion-less at the water's edge, within ten reet of a grunting, perspiring washerman, who was dashing some clothes to pieces against a stone In a dirty duck pond. That is the way washing Is done- In India. Neither individual took the least notice of the other."
