How would you explain ‘cocking their heads at beetles’?
In Lev’s new study, he sets his chair so he can see out the window into the courtyard where they scuttle around, cocking their heads at beetles in the dust.
How would you explain ‘cocking their heads at beetles’ in the last sentence?
Does it mean the chickens cocked their heads and looked for the beetles, OR the chickens cocked their heads and pecked at the beetles?
Thanks!
