My backyard birds are getting more familiar with my addition to the 
feeders.? I am experimenting to see if, with distance reduced, I can get 
better images without the 2X optical extender.? The first two images 
included the extender.

The Blue Jay has not shown a tendency to scatter seeds, so I have set 
the springs to allow him access:

The Rose-Breasted Grosbeak male in his formal attire:

These next two images were shot without the optical extender, so 
necessitated more enlargement:

I personally prefer the shots without the extender.
