In a 'dog eat world', somebody is always watching you.

Yesterday evening, while my child and I were enjoying the floral arrangement of my garden, I noticed that a small lizard was basking itself on a branch of flowers. As the young lizard continued to stretch its tiny limb (gymnastically), a bigger lizard jumped out of nowhere, caught the unsupecting lizard and swallowed it up! Yikes, could you imagine my surpise, as I spilled my drink on my lap! My child asked me what happenned there, as she saw the smaller lizard disappearing in front of her eyes. As soon as I tried to explain the first situation to her, a stranger event occurred to us. No sooner than the bigger lizard gobbled up the smaller one, a (raven) bird flew out of nowhere, en route towards its target, caught the bigger lizard in its claw and flew away with it. This time, my daughter was even more startled that me, as the bird's wing brushed against her tiny face; while escaping with the bigger lizard cluctched in its claw. After explaining the second event to my daughter, she (in her simple way) was happy that the bird took her revenge on the bigger lizard; while I remembered that in a 'dog eat dog world' somebody has to be always watching you.
