ollie does. i'm not sure if he's faking it or if its a real yawn. twiggy does fake coughs and sneezes. skittles does fake chewing and mouthing. but ollie's yawn is soo convincing.  he's done it since i got him. and tho its not a daily thing, when he does it he even stretches his whole body like a person who's yawning.  |

They're yawning to equalize ear pressure, birds are much more sensitive to ear pressure than humans
.
If they do it alot (several times a day) it could be a sinus or ear infection
