Growlights and parrots.

Recently I've purchased bird safe plants to help with foraging and entertainment, also air quality.

My home is not that bright so a growlight is a must. I purchased an led growlight that is more on the pink-red-magenta spectrum and noticed it does benefit the plants, however since birds can see different than we do, will this light affect them? It's on only daytime, and not aimed at the cages, only on the plant corner of my living room where my birds share space

They should be fine :) just make sure they don't mess with it, like try to play with the little lights (if it's the type I think it is).
