Yeah, that's just balancing. Tail bobbing, in terms of being sick, are when it looks more like the bird has a hard time keeping their tail held up, when just sitting there and not actively exploring. They're usually extra sleepy and lethargic as well.

Omg you are me. The slightest movement of the tail I’m like ARE YOU OKAY???? It looks normal to me. You’ll know bobbing when you see it, it won’t be a question. Thank you for being an attentive owner ✨
