To communicate animals use their bodies, their posture, their voices, their hair, fur or feathers.

Most animals are more honest than humans, who’ll often say one thing when they mean another, or hide fear by adopting a bold posture.

However, time spent reading your bird’s body language, what your parrot means when they grind their beak, or flares their tail, will be time well spent.

The more you can communicate across species, the better your relationship with become.

Here are a few guidelines taken from my own flock and from the literature on the subject.

To start with some cheerful and heart warming behaviour.

They’ll be stretching out one wing and looking towards you.

They may curl up the claw and stretch the leg on the same side of the stretched out wing.

The parrot is saying with a movement, not words, ‘Hi, pleased to see you again.’
