[What Karasu is missing is that he's running from a skilled hunter, a stray who has had to chase down her own meals for a long, long time. She has mastered the hunt, and Lalli's spryness and flexibility just aides in her efforts. She watches Karasu, pursuing at a close distance but not quite closing the gap. She notices the pattern: wings flap, fall back for a moment, spring forward.

She watches this pattern once, twice, three times. And then on the fourth she dives forward right as Karasu is flapping his wings, aiming to tackle him to the ground if she can. It's not a killing blow, of course, but more of an attempt to knock Karasu down and pin him to the ground.
