Panting can sometimes be a sign of heat exhaustion or extreme distress in birds. If moving your bird to a calm, quiet and cool cage does not resolve the panting, or your bird is having trouble breathing it is best to seek emergency medical care from a local veterinarian ASAP. Keeping him in a cool, dark, quiet room may help him recover, but if his symptoms don't improve care is needed.
