Very sad. Looks like a similar deformity to a female posted not long ago.

Looks a bit like Grey Flecks
Callocephalon fimbriatum (identifiable birds) (Gang-gang Cockatoo (named birds))
but pretty sure it is not that bird
Looks like disease is fairly widespread and worrying
this one can be called Grey Cheek
