65.181

鷓鴣 [zhègū, partridge] (fanqie for the first character: 之 [zhī] / 夜 [yè]; for the second character: 古 [gǔ] / 胡 [hú]. The Picang says: 'A bird resembling the fú bird, but larger.' The Zizhi says: 'The partridge's cry is its own name; it flies south and never north, and its shape resembles this pheasant').
