noun
brown-headed cowbird
A North American bird species (Molothrus ater). The Japanese name is a direct loan translation.
コウウチョウは他の鳥の巣に卵を産むことで知られている。
The brown-headed cowbird is known for laying its eggs in the nests of other birds.
The Japanese name コウウチョウ is a calque of the English 'cowbird', combining 牛 (cow) and 鳥 (bird), with the reading こううちょう. The kanji 香雨 are ateji used for their sound rather than meaning.
