Again this is an old falconry term used for describing a bird that drank too much water (supposedly dehydrated). Is there any other equivalent for this in Spanish (even in old Spanish?) Much appreciated (I was planning on using rapaz deshidratada but would like something better. Thanks!

Explanation:
Que no es "disecada"... I think it's a way of conveying thirst due to something that doesn't sound as modern as dehydrated. :))
