My first bird was a parakeet named Buddy (passed away November 8, 2012). My newest friend is a parakeet named Chipper.
I've noticed that Chipper has been bobbing his head a lot more lately. It seems like when he's happy or excited. He chirps a lot and bobs his head up and down like he's trying to dance! I bought him a new toy and more spray millet, and he was bobbing his head a little while ago.

I've read different reasons for why they do this, but most people say it's because the bird is happy and excited.

Is that why? He seems to be in a good mood. He's active and has a good appetite. Seeing him so happy makes me feel happy! :)
 
Well, chipper is one happy parakeet ! Pepsi and Sprite bob their head whenever they are in the middle of a song, as if they are making the beat. It's really cute! It could be a mating dance, but most likely that he is excited and happy.
