large beak
Pelican's mouth feature
A large beak is a prominent, oversized bill on a bird, often associated with toucans, pelicans, or hornbills.
The phrase appears in bird identification and nature writing: The toucan's large beak is surprisingly lightweight.
Figuratively, someone with a prominent nose might be said to have a large beak, though this usage is unkind.
