鵲
U+9D72 "鵲" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese logogram that primarily refers to the magpie, a bird known for its black-and-white plumage and a long tail. In East Asian cultures, particularly in China, Korea, and Japan, the magpie is a symbol of joy, good luck, and auspicious tidings, often associated with the happy legend of the Magpie Bridge in the Qixi Festival, which allows the separated lovers Zhinü and Niulang to meet. The character is composed of radical elements related to birds, and it appears in various classical texts and modern usages, including the common Chinese idiom "鹊桥相会" (magpie bridge meeting).
