The Bobcat vs. the Pine Siskin (A Drama in 4 Acts)

First: a scuffle in the bird feeder with a few downy feathers flying–Curve-billed Thrasher clearly the aggressor.

Next: a bobcat appeared below the feeder and snatched the fallen Pine Siskin (ID inconclusive because of rapid departure)

Last:  the thief absconded with his loot, carefully hidden in his fierce jaws.

P. S.  Bobcat returns to see if there’s any more.
