(TSOOK-uhn-roo-uh)
(n.) Migratory restlessness in birds
This German word has been adopted into English as an ornithological term for
the restless displayed at certain times of year by caged migratory birds.
But surely it deserves wider metaphorical use as a word for an "instinctive
restlessness" in humans as well.
"Yes, we're back from Europe, but the Zugunruhe is already kicking in."
