He could just be entertaining himself. You were busy and not paying attention to him so he decided to put on a floor show. laugh.gif Mine talks and whistles to himself, especially in the morning when I'm getting ready for work, and sometimes goes off into this screeching thing, then he'll go back to talking and whistling for a while.

Could be that something scared him. Was he near a window? Morgans acts real crazy when he is scared. Sometimes I can't even figure out what scared him.

Sometimes they can get scared easy. Vacuum coming in the room, holding something in your hand when your coming in the room. Different colors of your shirt. They acted tougher then a Pitt bull, but they get scared so easily! laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif

My Benito (6 months old now) did that head-bobbing, shaking thing one evening a couple of weeks ago when I introduced a new toy into his cage. (It was close to his bedtime so his cage door was already shut.) I was worried at first that he might be choking or having a seizure! But as soon as I took the new toy out he settled out right away. He's done that a couple of times since when we've added new items in his cage. He's always been jumpy with new things -- we have to slowly introduce him to them, such as hang the toy to one side on the outside of the cage first -- but now we know we have to do slow introductions to items in his cage and make sure he's got access to get out if he wants to.
