	Ortolan Bunting - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Ortolan, or Ortolan Bunting, Emberiza hortulana, is a bird in the bunting family Emberizidae, a passerine family now separated by most modern authors from the finches, Fringillidae.
		It is an uncommon vagrant in spring and particularly autumn to the British Isles.
		Ortolans used to be netted in great numbers, kept alive in an artificially lighted, or darkened room, and fed with oats and millet.

	Ortolan - Wookieepedia, the Star Wars Wiki
		Ortolans had a thick layer of blubber beneath their skin, which insulated them against cold weather and sustained them when food was scarce.
		Ortolans found offworld during the Imperial era were usually either slaves or associated with Rebels or smugglers.
		Ortolans or similar birds were blindfolded or kept in the dark, which made it impossible for them to stop eating.

	USS ORTOLAN (AM-45) (ASR-5)
		Early in September 1923, USS Ortolan assisted in the salvage of the seven destroyers that ran aground and were wrecked in the Navy's greatest peacetime disaster, up to that time...at Point Honda, California.
		During September of 1927, USS Ortolan resumed her submarine tender duties along the west coast of the United States, and, for another two years, ranged the eastern Pacific Ocean areas as submarines conducted training exercises in those waters.
		On 10 December 1941, USS Ortolan (ASR-5) steamed west from the west coast of the United States, and, eleven days later, arrived at Pearl Harbor...to assist in the staggering salvage effort, which was the aftermath of the surprise Japanese attack two weeks earlier.

		The first Ortolan (AM–45) was laid down 9 July 1918 by the Staten Island Shipbuilding Co., New York, N. Y.; launched 30 January 1919; sponsored by Miss Theresa M. Finn; and commissioned 17 September 1919, Lt. William A. James in command.
		Redesignated a submarine rescue vessel (ASR–5), 12 September 1929, Ortolan’s mission changed, but, throughout the 1930s, her area of operations continued, with brief exceptions for fleet problems and, in 1936, a 4 month tour at Pearl Harbor, in the California area.
		On 10 December 1941, Ortolan sailed west again and on the 21st arrived at Pearl Harbor to assist in the staggering salvage job which was the aftermath of the Japanese attack two weeks earlier.

	Corn bunting and ortolan bunting in the agricultural area - Environmental Data Compendium
		The peaks in breeding bird numbers in 1994 and 1997 shown in the figure are attributable to the high water levels of the rivers in the preceding year, which the following year resulted in ruderal vegetation that was a good source of food for the corn bunting.
		Around 1950 there were 1200-1700 breeding pairs of the ortolan bunting in the areas on the higher-lying sandy soils in eastern and southern Netherlands.
		The ortolan bunting occurs in an agricultural landscape with small fields and wooded banks (what the Dutch call a "small-scale landscape"), where it nests in fields - preferably of rye.

		The ortolan is a teeny French songbird, typically fattened, drowned in Armagnac, cooked and served whole to slavering diners.
		The ortolan is now an endangered species, so it is a forbidden pleasure, though Mitterand is said to have feasted on them for his last meal.
		Incidentally, rumor has it that the ortolan is properly cooked in a special frying pan used exclusively for ortolans, where it cooks in its own fat.

	7 foods for the fearless eater - Food - MSNBC.com
		Once captured, the ortolan would traditionally be left in a dark box, where the lack of light would prompt it to gorge itself. When plumped up to three or four times its normal size, the bird would be drowned in a snifter of armagnac, then quickly roasted for six or eight minutes and served hot.
		The traditional means of eating the ortolan is whole — bones, innards and all, except the head or beak, which is bitten off — with the diner's head covered by a napkin.
		The ortolan's most recent brush with fame came in 1998, when it was revealed to have been a pivotal course in former French President François Mitterand's last meal. A week before dying of cancer, Mitterand ordered a grand feast for 30 that included oysters, foie gras and a long row of two-ounce ortolans.

	Welcome To The ORTOLAN – ORTOLANO Family History Page
		My research is still at its infancy and it begins with some data of my great-great-grandfather Pietro Ortolan who was born in Padova (Padoa), Italy in the 1830’s (circa).
		Antonio Ortolan, my great-grandfather, married his sweetheart Solidea Gobbi who traveled with Antonio´s family to Brazil on the last decade of 1800’s, a time when Italians immigrated in larger numbers to Brazil, more than to any other country in the Western Hemisphere.
		The original name “Ortolan” is a French (provençal) name, from the Latin “hortulanus”, the gardner bird, celebrated for the delicate flavour of its flesh.

		lt wasn't long before the quality of ORTOLAN's products were recognized by a large farm machinery manufacturer who chose to private label the "L Series" tiller (made by ORTOLAN) and sold, in a short period of time, thousands of these units to the North American market.
		ORTOLAN's success can be attribuited to the extensive testing and evaluation of farmer's agricultural needs in order to provide the best performance.
		All the tractor power is used to till the soil, not to pull the machine, thanks to the design of the tines which penetrate the soil at just the right angle.

		It's a small brownish Old World bunting (so sez the dictionary), that's fattened in a small cage, and when the time comes they kill it (somehow), defeather it, and drop it in a special ortolan frying pan.
		When eaten, you pick the bird up by its beak and then you shove the whole thing in your mouth and bite.
		You eat feet, skull, eyes, intestines, intestinal contents, bunghole...everything but the beak, which you put back in the now-empty ortolan frying pan (in which the bird was served).
