Budgie covering head at night?

[Cassrock80]

Yet again. My man Bobby (5-6 months old) has surprise me with a peculiar tendency. The last week or so when I get ready for bed (and he does the same ) he's been consistently perching himself in the corner and putting this bell over his head. It typically covers his eyes and ears. This is the best pic I could get because when ever I get close he thinks it's time to wake up. But it usually covers his eyes.
Idk if he's trying to block out light and noise? Or if he's just comfortable like that? But it's very cute regardless.
I'm curious if anyone knows why he's doing this? I don't want to take it away if it's something he likes. But if it's a bad sign or a bad habit I'd like to take care of whatever he needs.

Thanks for your input!

Super cute! Are you covering his cage at bedtime?

This is beyond adorable. Try giving him more darkness and quiet.

Cover his cage, he's probably looking for dark and quiet. But that is SO CUTE

Perhaps he is a fan of Devo.

If you have a dimmer on your room's lighting, try reducing the light level as evening continues until to darken.

The why is likely your Parrots thing and if he is not telling anyone. Enjoy your Parrot's special thing!

Not really. Because the lights usually go out when everyone goes to bed

No. But I was wondering if that would help

Haha he is into 70's music. So maybe 🤔 🤣

He's probably trying to block out noise and light. It would a great idea to cover his cage with something such as a blanket or towel at night. It's advised that you cover the cage with a light sheet in the hotter months, and a blanket or a bit of the thicker sheet in the colder moths. Super cute though. Or maybe he just likes hats 😆
