Dear Parrots magazine,
That new beak!
In the June issue, I was delighted to read about the parrot that got a new beak. It never ceases to amaze me how there are so many wonderful people who care for the birds we all love.
It didn’t say how this bird came to losing its beak, but would have surely perished if it wasn’t for the expertise of the lady vet who carried out this amazing procedure. I have seen parrots that have had prosthetic parts attached to a leg when losing a foot but never a beak, quite incredible.
