I was worried for Rambo. He is 20 and I am 61. When I looked for a friend for him I was looking for an older Amazon that needed a home. Instead, Myrtle needed me. She is only 1. Now I have to put her in my will too.

You are reacting correct to the bites. Instead of dropping your hand, push in. Also you can distract by covering the birds head with your other hand.
