This is a little off the wall, but, I'm always amused by the hummingbirds
coming to my feeder.  Even though there are 4 holes, they seldom, if ever
allow another to eat at the same time and spend most of their time harassing
each other away from the feeder.  Then when one actually makes it to the
feeder, most of its time is spent sitting, looking furtively around to avoid
an upcoming attack. With the the little pointy head looking back and forth
and each one after the other, I am reminded of the old Mad Magazine cartoon
(which I loved) Spy vs Spy- you might have to be over 50 to appreciate that!

Wonderful entertainment.
