it is either one of the bulbs on the right side for the blinker which is pretty common, a connection proplem at one of the sockets. The reason it blinks so fast is there is an added resistance in the circuit causeing the realy to heat up faster and break contact of the bimetal strip in the flasher relay. The added resistance is typically a connection problem.
