Congrats on yourt new bird. I have a sun conure.
She wing flutters alot. With her it means look at me and pick me up I am excited. With yours it just may be nervousness. The bird needs time to adjust to you and your house When I bring home a bird I give it time to settle and learn the cage. Usally a day or two before I open the door and coax the bird out.
Is the bird hand tamed and just frightened? or is this an unsocalized bird?
If frightened I would let it adjust. Sit by the cage , talk softly, offer treats from your finger tips. Gain your birds trust. Also get a good parrot book like Guide To The Well Behaved Parrot. Nothing ever beats a book for learning about your bird and how to handle it.
With the tail feathers if they are completely plucked out and not broken off then you should start seeing pin feathers coming in soon. They will look like long whitish pink shafts.
Good luck,
Lynda
