what kind of question is that. why do you look at your feet?
duh; smart response - it was probably a real question -
- I have pictures of flocks of gulls standing at the shore line - they periodically bow their heads and looks at their feet for a minute or two then look up again - this is not sleeping behavior -
- I can't find any reference as to why this odd behavior but I suspect it might have something to do with their two salt glands removing high salt concentrations from their blood - they drinking sea water - the excess salt is eliminated as water droplets from their nostrils - when they bow their heads, the salty droplets fall from their beaks -
