    Default Beak deformities

    Just got an email on beak deformities from the BTO today.

    I'm sure many f you will also have received one too, but in case you didn't, have a look at these beak deformities;
    Gallery | BTO - British Trust for Ornithology.

    I wonder if anything could be done to help the worse cases - so they could feed and survive.

    Some very sad pictures there Catherine, I've also often wondered whether it would be possible to do anything about them, but probably would cause them too much stress to capture and treat them.
