Crossword Genius

Bird jaw (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

chat

This clue is a double definition.

'bird' is the first definition.
(chat is a kind of bird)

'jaw' is the second definition.
('chat' can be a synonym of 'jaw')

(Other definitions for chat that I've seen before include "Inconsequential conversation" , "Talk easily; songbird" , "Chinwag" , "waffle?" , "tittle-tattle" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and The Independent.
