Canary occasionally clicks her beak?

From my research, I know that beak clicking is usually a bad thing. However, i really don't think my bird is sick. She flies around and chirps and sings happily. She eats like a horse. Her breathing is normal. Her feathers and eyes look good. She wipes her beak on the perch occasionally but that seems normal behavior when she eats. But occasionally she clicks her beak. Should I be worried? I personally think she does it when she happy because it does seem to coincide with when she interacting with me. Thoughts?

I know my cockatiel grinds her beak when she is happy and sleepy but don't know if this applies to canaries.

Clicking, snapping and wiping the beak occasionally is perfectly normal.
