One legged perching, what's up with that?

[DRB]

Perjo loves doing the one legged perch, is it a relaxation thing? It's not always the same leg either, is it to rest one leg/foot?

She seems to do it quite often when on my hand and just sitting in a content and peaceful state with no sounds and nothing going on in the house.

All birds do it, from ostrich to hummingbirds.

She's putting her hand in her built-in pocket .

Yep, my baby too! I think it is a yoga thing they are into!

Definitely, remember birds can't sit down to take the load off, so to speak.

Take it Perjo is a very happy and relaxed little birdie.

She is, been home a week and she's had maybe 7-8 total minutes of temper tantrum type behavior, and it was mostly whining about taking something from her or not letting her nibble on my ear.

She doesn't make a sound once bed time arrives and the sheet is on the cage and she settles into her favorite resting spot.
