Cry of bird bearing large talon (4)
I believe the answer is:
claw
'talon' is the definition.
(claw belonging to a bird)
'cry of bird bearing large' is the wordplay.
'cry of bird' becomes 'caw' (cry of a crow).
'bearing' indicates putting letters inside.
'large' becomes 'L' (eg in clothes sizes).
'caw' placed around 'l' is 'CLAW'.
(Other definitions for claw that I've seen before include "Bird's foot" , "Lobster's pincer" , "Sharp curved toe of a bird" , "Scratch - scrape" , "Hook of some birds and animals" .)
