He may simply be playing and having fun. If he is doing it all the time, he may be stressed or bored. Try rearranging the perches and switching old toys for new ones to freshen up his environment. Spend more time with him outside of the cage if possible. When he exhibits the behavior distract him with toys or treats then reward and praise him when he responds to you.
