“M(B)ad Bird!!”

Description from Mary S - Sweet Chick: It has taken Forever to choose this pick and "peck" out this description.
I love my cockatoo but they can be moody and sometimes unpredictable. I recieved a severe bite from her Wednesday evening, requiring stitches and making it next to impossible to write, bathe, drive and BEAD!!!! Among other common mundane things. My comments will be few in the next few days.
Anybody out there know of a good animal behaviorist I can contact? Send me a message if you do! I've had my sweet birdie for 20 years and I love her dearly. I'm terribly afraid of how this will affect our relationship.

MaryKay K says:So sorry, but no tips on birds — we’re a 3 cat household. They’re all related but 2 of them currently have a cold war on. Talk about behavior problems!
This is a very interesting, subtle pick and I like it a lot. Even though you did have to bleed to get it!

I would take her to a vet first to rule out that she doesn¨’t have any disease or are in pain… Then they might have some recomendations of behavorists?
Great bird pick
