I Think He Is Stretching His Wings And Exercising Wings, But Keeping Opening His Cage Door In Case If Smurf Want To Come Out

Look at Smurf, you should see if his wings are clipped or not. Anyway if they are, its a no brainer that he is just testing them out, exercising to.

Chiquita does that all the time, in and out of her cage. She also does this when I flap my arms. It just feels good to them, like a stretch after we have been sitting. Nothing to worry about.

hi, in my case my bird is somewhat unique.....when she flaps her wings it usually means she wants something. Like when she wants to go to bed or she's hungry, or just mad...lol........but she isn't full grown yet and has her wings clipped and hasn't yet learned how to fly....but she usually flaps her wings when she is mad.
