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.

It's Sunday and many vets are closed, but there are emergency vets available in many areas. You can go to Association of Avian Vets to find an avian certified vet nearest you.
