I bought a new stainless steel food bowl for Trudy and have been catching her hitting the side of it with her beak, then preening a few seconds, then hitting the bowl again, repeatedly over and over. It has become a sort of obsession so I took the bowl away from her. Now she has this mark on her beak. Does it look like a bruise to you? I imagine it is from the bowl, but I am a worrier and would like your opinions in case it might look like something else to you.
 
Oh, good! ( A big sigh of relief) Thank you. Do you have any idea how long it will take for it to fade?
 
Aww little cutie. Don't be alarmed if there is some flaking of the top layers of the beak. I remember one of the times our Gary faceplanted the wall as a baby when he misjudged his landing. You couldn't see the bruise because of his black beak, but after a while the area flaked a bit so he had a very shallow divot poor bubba!
