It happens after she has been outside. The temperature is cooler when this happens and it is usually windy. Is this normal?

Could you post a video of her breathing? It is easier to diagnose seeing it. Does she lift up her wings when she opens mouth breathing?..she might be feeling hot if both her wings are open/life out. Does her crop emptied in the morning? What does her crop feel like?
