Surprising Behaviour

I truly was not going to blip a bird today but then this happened.  It was nice to be pottering in the garden this morning and for the second day we ate lunch on the deck in sunshine.  I noticed a fantail fly in but then it landed on the lawn and kept hopping around and sometimes flew low.  It was very fast and I had several frames with just grass and no bird.  The last extra is blurry but I put it in so you can see the wings spread and the fan tail lowered.  They usually catch insects in flight or hover to pick them of branches and leaves.  I am guessing there was an out break of something edible in the grass.
