The Blue-headed hanging parakeet hops around energetically on the ground and is very active and agile in trees but it has a strange habit of sleeping head downwards! It grips the branch with its feet and hangs upside-down like a bat! The bird also has a strange method of transporting nest-building material during its breeding season.
