    I think the worst part is not knowing, I can only hope that he simply wandered off back to wherever he came from. i haven't found anything to make me believe he was taken by something....no signs of a struggle, no feathers, no remains anywhere.

    I think it will grow back, if you look at pics from day one and pics from yesterday the scanned part of his beak started off way up by his nostrils and yesterday was all the way down on the tip, so it must have grown back a little for it to have moved the scab, right?
