A parrot's body language will give you an indication about how your parrot is feeling and if you intend to do some parrot training it is a good idea to learn to read when the parrot is happy and when it is unhappy.
If you feel that the body language is not right it is best to attempt the training at another time. Body language gives a very strong indication of what the parrot is thinking. If you want to teach a parrot you do need to have it in a good frame of mind and concentrating on what you are teaching it so reading the body language is helpful at this time.
Let's look at some of the body language signs you will get from your parrot.
Eyes - the parrot does not blink very often and can change the size of its iris independently of its eye lids. When it is not happy, due to being frightened, angry or aggressive, a parrot will change the size of his iris and this is called "flashing" or "pinning." If during training the parrots starts doing this it is a good idea to stop because it will show that he is getting annoyed and he may bite.
Vocalizing - we all know that a parrot is a born vocalizer. You cannot be anywhere near a parrot without realizing that they like to let their feelings be known vocally. After all, the reason why many people like to have them as pets is because they want to teach them to talk.
Some of the sounds you can expect to hear from a parrot are:
• Chattering - he is happy or beginning to learn to talk
• Singing, whistling, talking - these are signs of a healthy contented parrot.
• Tongue clicking - he may just be entertaining himself or he may be wanting some attention, but he is still in a good frame of mind
• Purring - this could mean that the parrot is content, then again it may not so this sign needs to be observed in conjunction with some other visual signs as well to get a true picture
• Growling - if the parrot is growling it is a sign that all is not right. When he is doing it take notice of his surroundings. Is the cage that he is not happy in, has he been on his own too long and wants some attention, or is he jealous of a new family pet? It is not a good idea to handle him at this stage but try and work out what could be upsetting him.
Wings - the flapping of wings usually means that he is just cooling himself but if he is standing very straight up and squawking it will mean that he is not happy. In this case it is not a good idea to try and handle him.
If a parrot is wing flipping he could just be settling his feathers or if he is nodding his head up and down as well, he is telling you he wants to be fed.
When drooping his wings it indicates that he is not well, especially if it is an older bird, so take note of his eating and ensure that he is eating his meals. If not, a visit to the vet may be necessary. If the bird is younger and drooping his wings it could just be that he hasn't learn to tuck them up all the time as yet. Another time that a bird may droop its wings is when they are wet after a bath.
Feathers - when a bird is fluffing its feathers (either its crest, wings or tail) and has an aggressive stance then it is not wise to touch him. He is most definitely telling you there is something that is upsetting him.
By observing your parrot you will learn to understand what the different body language signs are so that you will know when you need to be doing something to help out or whether things will right themselves in due course. Always avoid handling or trying to train him unless he is happy and relaxed.
