1 wings: "A wing" is the moveable appendage which most birds use for flying. We also use the term to refer to the "wings" of airplanes and other aircraft, or even to refer to extensions or areas within a building (the West wing of the White House for example). The ostrich has a pair of wings which are mostly for show in mating rituals and to frighten predators. They are vestigial limbs and don't grant the birds the gift of flight. What a shame! To learn more about the ostrich, visit your local aviary or zoo or consult an ornithologist.
2 beak: A "beak" is the mouth-like part of a bird's face. The beak is used for eating, killing prey, feeding young, etc. The "beak" can also be used to refer to a human nose, especially when the nose is long or shaped like a beak. In this conversation, Philip believes he sees a bird in one of Donna's inkblot cards, but then says that it is actually a woman with a sharp nose (which reminded him of a bird's beak).
3 feathers: "Feathers" make up the plumage of a bird. They are epidermal growths which emerge from the bird's body. Feathers are the distinguishing feature of birds and set them apart from all other classes of animal. Although not all birds can fly, the hollow structure of feathers permits some birds to stay in the air while flapping their wings.
