Atiśobhana (अतिशोभन) refers to an “excellent” (Hawk), according to the Śyainika-śāstra: a Sanskrit treatise dealing with the divisions and benefits of Hunting and Hawking, written by Rājā Rudradeva (or Candradeva) in possibly the 13th century.—Accordingly, [while discussing the yellow-eyed division of hawks]: “Vāsā becomes admired, if its voice is pleasing. The Vājā is good (atiśobhana), if it is silent. Kuhī is good, if its throat and the ‘ends of its ears’ are silvery”.
