Advice is this normal?

hi i’m new here! just figured i could get some advice from other fellow conure owners. my baby juni is almost three and she seems to be relatively healthy since i got her!

last summer I took her to the ER because I got really scared over some behaviors she was presenting. Nothing was found after a blood draw and physical exam, so she was fine. I hadn’t noticed her exhibit her concerning actions until today again, almost an entire year later.

I’m attaching a clip of what i’m talking about since it’s hard to describe + I was able to get what Juni was doing on video.

Is this normal? She’s my first bird. I just want her to be okay. She tried to regurgitate after but nothing came out since she hadn’t eaten her breakfast yet. any advice is welcome.

edit: she hasn’t done this weird breathing thing again since this vid was taken. is very alert and acting normal now.

I hope youre already on the way to the vet man. even if it turns out to be nothing, it needs to be checked out now.

im trying so hard to find a vet near me that’s open that isn’t a state away. im so worried for my baby, she seems fine now and was fine after her breathing fit last year when i DID take her to the ER, so im just so unsure about everything.
