Is This Bird Sick?

He appears healthy by all other signs, he eats well, drinks fine, he is active - able to fly strongly while out of his cage, his feces is is of normal consistency (though it has been runny for a period of a few weeks within in the past year) and he sleeps with one foot up, and his head tucked in his wings.
We are concerned about him (I think him I mean, he was found in a tree outside a few years back, and his or her owners couldn't be found) because he seems very distressed while in this state and it happens often throughout the day lasting 1-5 minutes on average.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I would agree if the bird showed true signs of sickness. And the owner of the bird/video just sees some 'strange' behaviour but the bird seems fine in any other way; the behaviour just seems strange.

But okay, a sick bird tries to hide it's sickness as long as it can but even then, this bird is so vivid..... it's not sick.

As far as I'm concerned, the question here on youtube instead of asking a doc isn't such a bad judgement IMHO

He's fine. He just wants some lovin'. My lovebirds used to do the same thing when they were young.

No his fine i am a Breeder for lovebird his just a horny little guy, its a mate dance he is doing all my male do it when they are ready to mate or find a mate, you want to give him a stuffed toy he can play with, its normal for a bird to sleep with one foot and head tucked way, he sound like a health happy little bird

It needs to take a bath. Put a shallow bowl of water in front of it on a flat surface. Hope that helps.

@LibertyBlackwood Yep, that's true. Seen a lot of them doing the same thing when they are horny.
