Animated Gif freezes on move

Is it normal behavior for an animated GIF to stop during a move?

I have a "dove.gift" which is a white bird with wings flapping, which 
is used to fly into the screen carrying certain objects in a children's 
presentation.

the script is pretty simple, in this instance the dove is carrying into 
view an image

show btn "displayArt" at -100,-100
lock moves
move image "dove.gif" from -100,-100 to  163,83 in 1 second without 
waiting
move btn "displayArt" from -100,-100 to  152,269 in 1 second without 
waiting
unlock moves

the above works fine except that the dove "freezes" until the moves are 
over, then the GIF continues its repeat loop through its frames.

Any help ?
