Humans too look at are fascination with shiny metals and stones,i saw something on TV the other day that said it was to do with are primeval brain and how are ancestors would have treasured water sources and of course water sparkles.

Actually i've just watched a few and it's not entertaining at all, just birds running off with stuff in their beaks!
