Means its in storage mode, or atleast mine does. Mine has it written on the battery tender itself letting me know what the lights are for

Yes it is normal ,once the battery is charged the battery tender goes into float mode where it watches the battery but does not charge it,as your battery sits there it starts to lose a small amount of charge then the battery tender turns back on and charges it back to full hence the flashing green light.

RED FLASHING - When the red light is flashing, the AC power is
applied to the charger and the microprocessor circuitry is functioning
properly. There is no battery connected or there is a problem with the
connections between the charger and the battery.

RED - When the red light is on, the battery charger is in the process
of fully charging the battery. In order to properly charge large capacity
batteries, the charger may remain in this mode for several hours or even
days.


GREEN FLASHING - When the green light is flashing, and the red
light is on, the battery is greater than 80% charged and may be removed
from the charger and used if necessary. Leave the battery on charge until
the green light is solid whenever possible. Once the green light begins to
flash, it will remain flashing until the battery charger output current drops
below the optimum recharge threshold, or until the absorption timer
expires.

GREEN - When the green light is lit, the battery charger is in the
storage mode of charge. In this mode the charger will maintain the
battery at full charge.
