What is feaking?

Cleaning the beak after eating Cleaning the beak while eating Cleaning the beak after drinking Trimming the beak

Correct Answer:

Cleaning the beak after eating

Explanation:

Feaking is the act of cleaning the beak after a meal. After eating, a raptor often has food residue on its bill, and feaking is how the bird clears those leftovers—typically by rubbing or wiping the beak on a perch or other surface. This routine helps keep the beak clean and comfortable and is a normal part of hawk care. It’s not something done during a meal, nor is it about cleaning after drinking, and it’s not the same as trimming the beak, which is a separate maintenance task.
