hmmmmmmm it's a hitter, but i guess it might work.
it's a sad fact anyway, because there simply is no permanent solution. your damned bird will be beaked for the rest of his days, there's little you can do to avoid the beakiness of your bird for the years months and days to come. regardless of the size of your spade i'm afraid.

or this
I'm assuming you're planning on outfitting the bird with some sort of mechanical replacement beak? That is a common solution for many pet birds whose beaks are overgrown or just plain annoying. I don't recommend it for wild birds though, as it gives them an unfair advantage. It bumps them up a couple notches in the food chain, and can create vindictive Terminator birds.
