She’s been big on displaying her wings lately. Not really sure why. Usually associated with a threat display when they see a predator but I’ve been catching it out of the corner of my eye when I’m not even close. If I go to open the cage to take a better picture she puts them back down. You’d think she’d keep them out if she felt threatened.

Here’s a whole crew of different species feeling threatened.

She's just showing off and why not, she is so beautiful. :love:
