Odd Parakeet behavior

Anyone else seen this before? Our new parakeet will hide under the paper towel in the bottom of the cage when anyone approaches and peek out at you. Has earned him/her the name Peek-a-Boo by our kids.

I am wondering if being alone is causing this behavior or not, and if getting another one for company will help.
