Wet Flies

Why do birds get their food wet?

I've noticed that Quiscalus Mexicanus around my house will steal my dog's food, then go to my pool, get the food wet and then fly away.

Why do they do this? Do they want to make the food softer, and they realize that they can achieve this by doing this? Or... Do they want it to have water in it for something? What are they trying to achieve and how did they learn to do it?

Wonder if it just makes it easier for them to swallow the dry kibble?
