Not my picture, but it's the look I get when the peanut pieces and sunflower seeds run dry.

I, too, use my porch railing as a little buffet. Darn jays try to hoover up every bit before they leave. If I see them, I'll tap on the window to scare them off, if I think they're taking too much. It works for 30 seconds or so.

they stuff one down their throat and then pick up another and fly off.

And a similar look from my most food-centric cat when I'm done handing out treats.
