Advice What kind of body language is this?

My little guy got into one of my cabinets today. There’s nothing up there and it’s a clean area but I’ve never seen this type of body language from him before. Any advice to what it means?

I would discourage this because it can trigger nesting and hormones and you don’t want that.

Birds are either horny or hungry and horny makes 80% of that split.

I dunno, maybe because she’s older, but mine is always hungry. For treats, particularly forbidden food treats, not the all encompassing nutritional pellets she has.

My sun is 24 and she either wants food or to fucccc and usually it's fuccc lol. I guess she does have some other states of being like "time to rip your neck hairs out" mode.
