🐦Common Nightingale

Luscinia megarhynchos C.L.Brehm, 1831

サヨナキドリ (小夜啼鳥、学名:Luscinia megarhynchos)は、スズメ目ヒタキ科に属する鳥類の一種。別名ヨナキウグイス(夜鳴鶯)や、墓場鳥と呼ばれることもある。 西洋のウグイスとも言われるほど鳴き声の美しい鳥で、ナイチンゲール(英語: Nightingale)の名でも知られる。この語は古期英語で「夜に歌う」を意味し、和名の由来ともなっている。ドイツ語: Nachtigall(ナハティガル)の原義(古高ドイツ語: nahtgala)も「夜に鳴く/歌うもの」(Nachtsängerin)の意味。
