The male, which is red, is called fěi; the female, which is blue-green, is called cuì. It comes from Yulin. The Nanfang yiwu zhi says: 'The fěi is larger than a swallow and smaller than a crow; its waist and body are entirely black, with red feathers only on the breast, back, and behind the wings. The cuì is greenish-yellow throughout its entire body, with feathers over an inch long only on its primary wing feathers; when they fly, their wings cry fěi-fěi and cuì-cuì, and hence they are named after this.' The Zizhi says: 'In the south, people catch them by waiting until they hatch chicks and their nests gradually sag down, then catching them; they catch them all for their plumage'). > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 65.201](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.65.201) - [Next: 65.203](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.65.203) - [Up: 65](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.65) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128~en-mt.65.202) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.65.202](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.65.202) · Pramāṇa
