Chicken Image Stabilizer

Photographers, you don't need to spend a lot of money on an image stabilizer -just use a chicken's head!

According to the video, motion processors use an inertial measurement unit, which senses motion (rate, type and direction) and compensates for it. Chickens have a pretty advanced version.

It's funny, too! Link (embedded YouTube video) -Thanks, bactac!

I think all birds do it in order to more easily detect prey. Watch a pigeon walk, or a bird on a branch in a wind; their eyes only move when they have to. Very effective feedback system, though.
