烏角鵄(言角鵄者此鳥頭上毛竪似角即鵂[(堊-王+田)*鳥]荒鷄之類是也此鳥噉鳥必無同棲之義故佛引為譬喻)。

Horned owl (as for "horned owl," the feathers atop this bird's head stand erect like horns; it belongs to the category of the screech owl and wood owl; because this bird eats other birds, there is never any possibility of them nesting together, so the Buddha adduced it as a metaphor).
