Most of my bird images are grab shots. When I put food out it doesn't take long for the frenzy to begin.
Occasionally some will pose momentarily but usually the action is quick. Focusing speed is critical.

Thought maybe you'd show us Charlie Brown and Snoopy.... :)
Crisp and clean--wish my "grab shots" were that good! Hope you don't mind me asking, are you using flash for these? Thanks!

Thanks for looking and asking.
Charlie Brown and Snoopy would be ideal names for the two Blue Jays since they seem to hang out together.
Yes I use flash. It was a SB800 with an extender set at TTL -3. I sometimes use a SB900 but prefer the former since it has a little more power and lower center of gravity. The battery wart improves the cycle times.
