_______________________________________________
(HolQeD 10.4:5 in re the { 'uSgheb}): a bird which is particularly noisy [at dawn] and has been likened to a rooster (though is much fiercer). Another [animal which is particularly noisy at dawn], though not a bird, is the {Qa'}, specifically the {jajlo' Qa'} (dawn {Qa'}) ... Maltz said he has also heard the phrase {po Ha'DIbaH}, literally "morning animal", used to refer to the {'uSgheb}. ... Maltz supposed that {po Ha'DIbaH} could refer to a {jajlo' Qa'} as well.
