No, not friendly. I wait and am willing to wait for them to visit my feeder two to three times in an eight hour period. They feed in about 5 minute increments. I'm able to increase my amount of keepers by surrounding the feeder with 5 cameras activated simultaneously and remotely. 2 cameras bursting at 30 fps and 3 cameras bursting at 60 fps. Depending on the birds' trajectory of departure, I at times can get two to four keepers between 2 of the 5 cameras each time the birds visit the feeder. 4 cameras works good, but the perimeter is not as tightly surrounded as one may think. 5 cameras, the perimeter is so tightly surrounded no matter where the birds enter and exit is covered. The birds are more aggressive to feed early morning, mid day, and early evening.

The birds do not like the presence of the cameras, but do acclimate a bit. They scout the cameras by either landing on top of them to inspect them or may fly through without perching on the feeder at top speed (I have a capture of a robin head on doing this). They can feel or hear the radio frequencies. I've on numerous occasions witnessed perched birds flee the feeder upon a half press of the remote. My cameras all shoot silently. The second image (no seed in beak), the Jay is aborting during approach when I activated the remote.
