鴟鴞（上齒之反下尤驕反毛詩傳云鴟鴞惡聲之鳥也郭注爾雅云似鳩而青毛顧野王云楚人謂之服鳥賈誼所為賦也說文二字並從鳥氐号並聲也論文從至作鵄俗字也）。

Horned owl (鴟鴞: the upper [character 鴟 is] chi-zhi fan [chī]; the lower [character 鴞 is] you-jiao fan [xiāo]. The Mao commentary on the Shijing says: “The chixiao is a bird of ill-omened cries.” Guo [Pu]'s commentary on the Erya says: “It resembles a dove and has bluish-green plumage.” Gu Yewang says: “The people of Chu call it the fu bird; it is the one about which Jia Yi wrote a rhapsody.” The Shuowen [jiezi] says that both characters are formed with 鳥 ('bird'), with di and hao both phonetic. In the text of the treatise, written with 至 as 鵄 is a vulgar character).
