Freaking Crow
The crow had been trying to sneak out of the pond without making a noise but the moment it saw Vali approaching, it freaked out and it even alerted Vali. It can be seen fanatically flapping wings, hoping to fly out of water or it simply wished to drown- anything is better than being eaten alive really. The people could only pity the not so pitiable bird for the fate it was about to reach but there was a twist they did not expect.
