it isn't a bruise, I just noticed it a few minutes ago I'll try and get a better pic
can't seem to get the camera to focus close up
 
i see it, but not totally sure what it is. wonder if she broke a small blood vessel in her face?

it looks like a rough spot but doesn't feel rough not sure if that makes any sense
there is also a much smaller spot below it as well right where the beak meets the feather line
 
i saw on a documentary macaws blush when breading, but not normally in captivity. Any way this blushing turns the patch of skin around their eyes into a pinky red colour. I dont think its that though.
 
As long as it doesn't increase in size, get any worse, or bother her, it's probably ok. If it gets worse, or larger, you would probably want to have it checked out.
 
So I wa spooking at his beak and it looks alittle misaligned and I don't know of I should be worried or not
