This morning, Duckie was startled and flew around the room, and landed on her cage. She immediately arched her back, put her head back with her wings straight up into the air, very ridgid. She then started walking, wobbling side to side and shaking a little like she was drunk. It lasted just a moment. Then she was acting as if nothing ever happened.
This has happened a couple times before. Each time the little episode was immediately after landing after a big, fast flight. My AV is an hour and a half away, so at the time I just called her, and she said since Duckie had just had her wellness exam, there would be nothing she could do, and as long as she was acting normal, just to keep an eye on her.
I have read about this happening, and described exactly the same way, other places on the internet.
What could be going on?
Last year, she had smacked her head pretty bad twice in flying mishaps, which I wrote about here. She was clipped for a while too, because she flies so fast and so hard. But now she's completely flighted, and flying very fast again.
Is there anything I should do?
