     Having been raised in a farm town, I've often seen chickens do that
 while charging another chicken about to get a desirable morsel.
 
     Sometimes it causes the chicken nearer the morsel to 'chicken out', and

Organisms will use whatever tools they are equipped with as creatively as 
they can to accomplish the purpose of survival.

Meanwhile, what is FUCHSIA an acronym for, if anything? The post that 
explained it may have passed me by, and I'm too busy to search the DML
