δὲ ἐπὶ τῷ βωμῷ χαλκοῦς κεῖται τὰ πτερὰ ἐπὶ μήκιστον ἐκτείνων.

The sentence has an elided/implicit subject for κεῖται, probably referring to an altar object; χαλκοῦς is a nominative masculine predicate/subject-oriented adjective, while τὰ πτερὰ is the accusative object of ἐκτείνων. The final participle is coordinated semantically with the implicit subject and governs the accusative phrase ἐπὶ μήκιστον.
