8.76

Noxious owl (惡鴟: the second character is [pronounced] 處脂 [chī]; the Erya says: "A monstrous owl." Guo's commentary says: "It is the chīxiū (horned owl). Nowadays east of the Yangtze River they generally call it a monstrous bird, also called xiāochī"; the commentary says: "It is the burrowing owl." It is also written as 𩿍, a popular form. In the Vinaya text it is written as 鵄, which is incorrect).
