I see them with my own eyes all the time but finally I caught them, on camera, stealing.
They are watching for the dogs to turn their heads so they can fly down and grab the food, then fly and put it somewhere else for later.
Roscoe does not like the birds taking his food.

@andriaperry You should see our the magpies look around and then they look at my window before starting to grab the food. They are funny.

Once Tony watched one bird take the food out of the feeder and lay it on the ground, then when Tony said " hey" the bird did it faster, lol.

@andriaperry Your country is very large and therefore I don't quite know all of the locations well. I know CA is in the south but I don't know Alabama is the same.

@andriaperry Have you ever tried to use all your old CD's and tie them up in the tree. I do this and it keeps the birds out of my food I grow. For the chickens, I had to put up some wire fencing around the tomatoes in order to keep them out.

Birds flogging the animals is not funny to watch, they can get mean.

With all the variety of birds that I've got here @andriaperry , when I put out cat food for the feral cats, you can bet the birds are having a feast.
