Powerful Beak

Echo has an amazing beak.  She may lap up her daily gruel with daintiness, but she can also pry open tough nuts with ease. 

Yesterday, she popped a weld on her very strong cage!  Imagine! 
Fortunately, my son is a welder.  Some repairs are now in order. 
If you think a hyacinth macaw is your dream bird, be prepared to get a very strong cage!
