wild kingdom, city-style

Happily, no cute furry or feathered animals were eaten this fine day, but it was close. I happened to be walking by my dining room window when movement outside caught my eye. I saw a big cat swiping at a bird which flew off to the top of the neighboring tree - very Sylvester and Tweety like. Then it was a stare down with lots of "ha, ha! you can't catch me!" from the bird. It was entertaining enough for me to stop cleaning and grab the camera.
