intriguing robin behaviour (1 Viewer)

I was looking out of the window this morning and a couple of the resident Robins dropped into the garden. Its a bit difficult this time of year to tell which is which so I miight be wrong in my observations. One bird (I took to be the male) was feeding and another robin with an impressably bright red breast approached the first bird. The first bird stood and watched as the second bird (I can only describe it like this) swayed from side to side for about a minute. The first bird was joined by a 3rd bird and this prompted the 'swaying' 2nd bird to launch itself at the first robin as if to get its attention.
