τριζόνι (trizOni) -- I thought it was some kind of bird, but clearly not-- it's a cricket. Cricket is also called γρύλος, and a few google searches have given no evidence that the synonyms refer to different subspecies of cricket. I was reminded to look up the word when fellow Greece Seminar prof Christopher Bakken posted this song (which I've loved for many years) http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DEQnJ1BInoL8&h=MAQGVhPqqAQE0ClFata1f4UaoLCrAkytT42h_0ajBdGI5bg
