cham dancing

[kanjiman]

ok.. so the title is about the best i can quickly explain it... Amy, any time there's a breeze or anything, she'll do this type of a dance thing... i'm not entirely sure how to explain it but it's like she's kinda cautious about something but her colors are normal. this only happens when i take her outside of open the window that's kinda close to her cage... i'm assuming it's a normal thing.. either that or Amy's just a little special in the head anyone else have experience with this?

It's a natural movement to mimic the leaves moving in the trees, or so I've read. Someone correct me if I am wrong, though!

I think people call it the Leaf Dance lol. Mines does it when he walks across the floor or the grass

It's called the leaf leaf dance and they do it allot when the are young but not as often when adults. Here's a cute video by Dez of my Sadie doing the leaf dance when she was a baby.

Oh my gosh! That was hilarious! Thanks for showing me that Jann, although I knew of the leaf shaking thing that was too funny!

That video is great- and the music goes perfect with it. Loved it. My little 3 month old Sambava does the leaf dance all the time when he is outside in the sun, but he is a lot slower.
