It depends on what I'm working on. Sometimes it's on the camera, sometimes on a tabletop tripod or a light stand. I do bounce the light a lot. In a small room, it won't be hard to place and bounce.

It's rugged, too. That might be handy. Those big birds have powerful beaks. I had an ornery cockatiel...

Rugged is good.  Some of my birds excel at destroying things.

Luckily my 'too doesn't usually bite me.  I do have a 'tiel who likes to bite and, even though his beak is small, those bites can sometimes be painful.
