Anybody else have a U2 that does the Jedi mind trick???

[Buteo]

I mean raising the facial feathers to cover the mandible and soft talking.
I was reviewing some of the photos I've taken in the last couple of weeks. Came across the batch I'd taken when the family went to the Parrot Farm.
There's some pics of the "Angel" they have there doing it in this thread:

Angel is the BOMB!!! Love that too. Puff says OOOOOOOOOUUUUUUU

Angel is beautiful, like all U2s :-).

Yes, Gracie does the feathers over the lower beak thing. She uses it when she's particularly comfortable and content.

She's also on the go most hours of the day, so she rarely sits still long enough to get comfy and content :-).

The bird is very comfortable at the moment. Tiffie does that all the time except he groans.

I sure do...I love when Miss Belle does this-I think it is just too cute.

I've seen other cockatoos do that but always wondered why. I think of them playing shy when they do that, it's so adorable!
