The animal kingdom provided a rich source: Gallos (gallo cock or rooster) either sang well or had active sexual lives, Gazzas and Gazzanis (gazza magpie) and Malpighis ( male bad, piga a dialect word for magpie) made a habit of gossiping or collecting things, and many Calendris and Calandrinos ( calandra lark) were so named because people believed larks to be remarkably witless.
