    A bird.

    "The beccafichis, the skylarks, the robins, the linnets and others volatile from the bec gentil, today protected with special law."

    I am unable to copy the link.

    Watch how you spell that, tf. The "beccafico," or "fig eater" is a bird considered to be a delicacy similar to the ortolan that we've discussed here recently.

    However, the spelling you've used can be interpreted as a raw obscenity, which I shall not explain here.
