Hi just reposting with video link. I’m new to this so I’m unsure if he/she is happy or unhappy. Any help would be lovely.
Thank you

What kind of bird is that? A ringneck?
Someone with more experience with them might be able to give a better answer but if i were to guess I'd say the bird is happy

Going by body language he/she does not look upset or in destress.

I would go with happy.

I agree with the above; it just sounds like general bird chatter from a happy bird 🙂.

Silent birds are possible sick Parrots where a lunging Parrot is commonly unhappy. This gal /guy sounds like a very happy Parrot!
