Today was the jackpot: about a hundred of them, concentrated in 2 trees. There were some berries lying on the ground nearby; about ten birds at a time flew down to check things out, then a car came along and all went back to the tree, then another ten down to the ground, etc. I was standing about ten feet away from the spot, and as long as I didn't move, they weren't upset.
