What 𬷺 means
𬷺 is a Japanese-made character for a hawk name. It is a kokuji, a character created in Japan for a Japanese word. References give the readings kumataka and ōtaka; kumataka is the mountain hawk-eagle, ordinarily written 熊鷹.
A Japanese character dictionary traces its “large hawk” gloss to Saikinbukuro, a linked-verse poetry book published in 1657.
Another Japanese dictionary writes kumataka as 角鷹. The records do not settle whether that and “large hawk” mean the same species.

1Why does 𬷺 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
