Hard bump on peahen’s face

[Kingfisher28]

Spalding peahen has a hard bump on her face. Does this look like a feather cyst or an abscess?

The bump is below the ear on the skin under the eye.

It is not a sinus infection so you will need to look inside of the mouth in that area and see if she has a burr or something sharp lodged in that area.

There was not anything inside of her mouth. The lump is still there.
