Is this a bird? Or a muffin? I'm not sure.  |

I say none of the above. I'd bet my boots that's amore, as in "when the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie..." The puffed cheek feathers are the big tell.  |

I've heard of something called a "birdie muffin," so maybe that's what it is. |

I think that's a pretty accurate description. "Fluffus maximus" perhaps. Although thus far, the consensus of the poll indicates that this is indeed a muffin. |

awwwww Isn't she beautiful.... Is that food on her bill or does she need something to file it on? Just curious. Her feathers almost look like fur eh?

She's our fancy little lady... Nah, that's her beak... she has plenty of things to file her beak on, she just doesn't seem to care about keeping it smooth. Don't know why. I never see her file it on anything, but she has tons of surfaces at her disposal that would work. I love that bird fluff. It is almost furry, but better |

My little Yoshi's beak looks just like that too, in the same exact spot. I just assumed it was normal - is it cause for concern?

No cause for concern -- it's totally normal. Some birds are more inclined to keep their beaks smooth than others, but flaking or peeling, as long as the shape and color of the beak are normal, and there are no deep grooves or cracks, is fine. Here's an article about it: www.birdtricks.com/blog/is-your-parrots-peeling-beak-normal/ |

Thanks for the link, aaron. Very good read!
I figured it was normal, but after it was pointed out in this thread I wanted to make sure!

I think this creature is the Feistyness FluffinDillious, in other words, a muffin that looks like a bird (AKA 'Bird Muffin').
