now if the kitten was about 6 months or old, it could have easily scaled the small tree, but the look on its face was determined while yelling back at the birds which were twice its size and could have easily picked up the kitten and dropped it off "at an undisclosed location for talks"
the kitten suddenly stood tall and determined, looking like it was truly believing in itself.
I started thinking man, something in that kitten said, "I can do this, I'm not afraid of those big ass birds".
(the birds either just "laughed" and turned their backs to the kitten or took off to chase something)
