Textual Research: In Ban Gu's Western Capital Rhapsody (Xidu Fu), in the passage listing the cormorant, the crow, the 鳵, and the osprey, the commentary states that the 鳵 resembles an eagle but is larger and lacks toes. We have corrected this according to the original text to reflect Li's commentary, which states the 鳵 resembles a wild goose but lacks a hind toe.
