Love Bird- beak injury..

[monapica]

I let my two lovebirds out to fly around in my room...well, a couple weeks ago, one of them (poor thing) hit his beak onto the mirror- he flew into a mirror, but not too hard. Afterward, I noticed a little bit of red on his beak- it appeared to be a bruise, or internal bleeding. It hasn't gotten any better, but my bird is doing just fine. He is still energetic and alert.

Is this potentially serious, or just a simple bruise that will disappear on its own?

When one of my lovies went after a new arrival, the newbie got her beak quite injured...it was definitely cut and there was a tinge of blood where the first one got below the surface. I cleaned it up and called the vet...he said that bird's have very solid beaks and that I needn't worry about infection. And, their beaks do grow, so the injury grew out in a short time.
I'd say that, after a couple of weeks, if he seems fine and is acting and eating normally, all should be well with him at this point. Always keep an eye out, but my feeling is that he should be fine.
