noun
pine siskin
A small finch (Carduelis pinus) native to North America; the Japanese name is a direct translation of the English common name.
マツノキヒワは北米に生息する小鳥です。
The pine siskin is a small bird that lives in North America.
The Japanese name マツノキヒワ literally means 'pine-tree siskin', a calque of the English 'pine siskin'. The kanji 松木鶸 is a direct representation of this meaning but is rarely used.
