Is it good or bad?

My bird doesn't like to eat inside her cage....
First I was thinking..oh well that's OK, but it makes my life more difficult. She would eat outside her cage just a little in the morning, but I have to go to work, so I would put her and her food back inside her cage. I don't see she was touching it at all when I come back in the evening.
No wonder, she is very hungry in the evening, when I get home. She is eating right now for about 30 minutes, but it's because the food is introduced at her stand. She would not eat for more than 1 minute if it's inside her cage. Sometimes she would return to her food few times if it's in the cage, but again only for 1 or 2 minutes.
Why could this be, and what should I do about it, please?
In a way she is foraging, I guess. Sometimes she would fly from stand to stand to look for food. Maybe it's a natural instinct to look for food or eat away from the place where they sleep.....???

If she gets hungry enough and she sees food in her dish inside her cage, she is going to eat it. I personally don't see anything to worry about right now.

Give her a reason to want to eat in her cage, like an all time favorite treat.

Maybe try several food dishes inside her cage... and some foraging toys?
