Funny thing is... I think Galileo would be behind that scheme, jealous over the new addition... "GET ANOTHER BIRD, WILL YOU???!!! EAT PUMPKIN SEEDS!!!" *Gal throws seeds at me, then stares at me when I am unharmed* "Well...crap. It worked better on paper." :lol:

Sharpening the beak you say? It's already plenty sharp.... Maybe I should try and discourage this behaviour :D

THe grinding is indeed a sign of well being. But the beak clicking is interesting. Didnt I hear Kili Click her beak while being at the vet, and the vet said "Yes you are a very angry bird" or something like that.
It got me thinking, does clicking mean a bird is angry?

He seems relaxed when he does it, though so maybe not? That is why I asked too! I remember the beak clicking and I thought he might be mad or scared, but the rest of his body-language indicates relaxation... His eyes half-closed, breathing slow, and body still (not shaking). So it confused me.

You cant post a video of it so it is easier to tell what you are referring to?

I don't know how to upload to Youtube. Can you upload vids off of cell phones? Bahahaha...my camera AND video camera are both from my phone and of terrible quality... I don't think a video would help much because of how junky it is. Seriously. I could try though?
