鷙鳥 ('bird of prey': the first character has the sound 至. Zheng Xuan's commentary to the Liji says: 'A 鷙 is a fierce bird.' The Guangya says: '鷙 means to seize.' The Chuci says: 'Birds of prey do not flock together; they are of the kind such as hawks and falcons.' The Gujin zhengzi states that it is derived from 鳥 (bird) and 執).
