User's notes

This lone male was growling and calling near a hollow. There was no female and he eventually flew off. I'm wondering about his beak and head - it looks as though he's been in the wars. I have a vivid imagination, but I'm wondering if his beak is damaged, and whether the darker patches on his head could be blood?
