Cat meets bird, and the victor isn't a foregone conclusion (forwarded by dyanearden). I recommend against drinking while reading. This reminds me of something that happened to our Irish Setter (big, dumb dog) once: I watched a butterfly tease him for a good ten minutes, dive-bombing him but not quite far enough and then flying back up a few feet.
