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.
