Hey,
just interested if anyone knows what this behaviour means.
I'm talking about when she bends down puts her tail up, spreads her wings and spins in circles.
She often does it when a song comes on so i figured it was just dancing but she has been doing it at other times aswell.

During mating season, head down & tail up is usually a mating invitation from hens.....the spinning around may be a noticibility add on movement.....
 
she is actually inviting your Hans to mate with her. My female does this with my male lovebird right before they mate the female does it to let the male know she wants to mate and also gives him a way to hold on underneath her wings better.
