they do it to the bars on the cage, perches ect. I have also noticed they do it after eating and while bathing.

Young (and sometimes older birds) will rub their beaks on your fingers to simulate being fed by parent birds. It comforts them. Your bird trusts you and is comforted by your hand on its beak. That's a good thing! Enjoy!
