Open Translation Issues

She tilted her head like a manakin reminiscing over the taste of the seeds it ate the day before.

This sentance doesn't make much sense to me. I was about to correct the spelling of "manakin" (which should be either "manikin" or "mannequin"), but the rest of the sentance has me confused. Why would a manakin have been eating seeds the previous day? Is this a reference to something in Japanese culture, or a mistranslation?

A manakin is a type of bird, so it makes sense.

Wait, mannikin fits better since they feed mainly on seeds.
