          Saw I think it was a smarter every Day video on how birds doing this is effectively the same as our eyes being able to stay locked onto moving objects, but birds don’t have this ability, so they keep their whole head stationary when moving their body. That’s why most birds do that thing when they walk where they head has the jerky movement, while the body walks smoothly.
