He's probably yawning.

Yawning is a perfectly normal action for a bird. What is not normal is if the cockatiel is constantly opening its mouth wide. It can be a sign of distress. It could be having difficulty breathing, or be in pain. If the bird is behaving differently from normal, it should be taken to a veterinarian.
