    Auto Focus question

    Ah, that's changing the AF method from 1-point to spot. I'll try that out. In the meantime, I did switch AF operation to AI Servo and that did seem to signifcantly improve focus when shooting in shutter priority at high zoom.

    Bird feeders

    My understanding is that it's fine to feed via feeders if you do so responsibly: keep cats indoors, put up anti-collision measures on large windows and glass doors, sanitize the feeders regularly, clean up spilled/uneaten/wet seed so it doesn't get moldy, keep them stocked with fresh, quality...
