Amazing, isn't it? How delicately and precisely a bird uses its beak. When I'm in the mood for it, I let Chi Chi preen my eyebrows and sometimes my ears (it tickles a lot) but I think he uses ear preening as an excuse to suddenly undo an earring, even though he knows I'll object by shaking him off. Little stinker. Even I can't get an earring off as fast as he can. Amazing.
