The lover mandible on this bird was deformed but it didn't seem to have trouble feeding.

Date uploaded: Apr 23

Comments (2):
Brian Morin: That deformity is due to avian keratin disorder. It can manifest to varying degrees, some extreme, but as you noted, this one is not significant. Good capture too.
Chris: Very good one - never too common.
