Life and Death Struggle on the Back Deck

At this point I thought it was about a peanut, and was impressed at the ingenuity of the attack.

Later it became clearer that the victim might not be a peanut.

I think the bird won out in the end, after trying a few other approaches, including throwing its quarry down onto the deck, perhaps in the hope of stunning it. (Which likely would not help with a peanut.)
