Han character 𨿎

𨿎 is a rare written form of 鶪, a Chinese name for the shrike, a predatory songbird. The Shuowen Jiezi, a Chinese character dictionary from China’s Han dynasty, defines 鶪 as 伯勞; the Book of Songs, an early poetry collection, places the bird’s call among seasonal farming cues. The Kangxi Dictionary (1716) records 𨿎 as a nonstandard form of 鶪, citing the earlier character dictionary Zhengzitong.
