U+130F8 "𓃸" Egyptian Hieroglyph E033 is a depiction of a small bird, specifically identified as a quail chick or a similar small fowl, and belongs to the category of birds in the Gardiner sign list for Egyptian hieroglyphs. In the ancient Egyptian writing system, this particular glyph was primarily used as a phonogram to represent the biliteral sound "w" (or sometimes "u") because of its association with the Egyptian word for "quail."
