What is going on, on the back of the head of this grass parakeet?

I saw another splendid parakeet in a clip on the "Cockatiel Companion & the Pheasantasiam" from NZealand that also had a back of the head injury like this, and I think the guy said he was thrown out of the nest, but he didnt sound too sure.

Does this happen a lot? It looks like the skull is exposed. Has anyone seen a bird like this, etc?

The make us probably doing this to her during breeding, is my guess

He's pecking out her feathers?

Most likely trying to hang on while doing the deed..maybe I am wrong, but...

Oh no :[ That has got to be painful.

Mystery solved:

I watched another clip of the bird with the injury, and it was said that he went into a box which he shouldnt have, and the hen beat him up :smiley2::19_indiff
