The video that this striking .gif image comes from was taken long
before the amateurnithologist had a nice camera or was indeed an
amateurnithologist at all. Identifying him is hard with quality this
low, but current bet is that he is a Herring Gull, most common gull in Scotland (where this video was taken). This odd and enticing behavior is
likely intended to draw worms or other insects out of the ground
(perhaps by mimicking the sound of rain), but it's all speculation at
this point.
And just for fun..
Oh yeah, and bird blog is back, act like you know
