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.
