I had thrown wheat seeds near water by accident when it first happened. After making sure it wasn't a one-time fluke, I realized it was a bug.
Steps to reproduce:
find a source of water
throw an item near the water so you can see the water from directly behind the item
Other Notes:
you can throw the item onto a glass block or barrier to see it better
beds and most blocks will not produce the bug
thrown glass blocks (including stained glass), barriers, and doors will produce the bug
placed glass (including stained glass), barriers, and doors will not produce the bug
