Answer to Question 1

Birds establish hierarchy by how high they are on the branch. Many large birds, when perched on a shoulder, are higher than the person's head. In this instance, the bird's perception is that it is the boss. The risks of zoonotic diseases are also of concern (psittacosis, giardia).

Answer to Question 2

A new, growing feather with a rich blood supply.
