A first for me, she seems healthy enough !

That's very interesting. That looks like a split beak that kept growing...

Poor thing. Nice grab

Great captures! I've never seen anything remotely like that.

Weird. Looks like it curved out of the way enough.

I wonder if it is a sliver of wood it has driven into itself. Really interesting photos.
