I do not see anything wrong with him in these photos. That does not mean that everything is fine. He may have something going on internally. I just suggest you monitor him closely for the next few hours. If he is fine during that time then he will likely be OK. If you notice any abnormal behavior you should have him examined by an avian veterinarian.
