I know that the pet shop I bought my parrot from clipped his wings, but he has not been clipped since I have him, which was maybe 3 or 4 weeks ago. Lately, past day or 2, he will climb off my shoulders every so often, go on the desk area and run twoards the end of the desk and flap his wings like he is trying to liftoff.
He does not get any height and stays on my desk, but what is he doing when he does this? After he does this 2 or 3 times, he comes back to me on my shoulder.
I noticed too on his wings, one has a long wing that sticks out past his top feathers, and one wing does not have this long feather. Why is one gone, or maybe it just fell out, or maybe they didn't clip properly, who knows, I just thought it was odd. I know I sound like an idiot not knowing the techincal terms for these wings, but I hope you can tell what I mean.
I edited to add a question.
Is he telling me (if I decide to keep him clipped) that it is time to clip his wings?
