I almost always use single point in AF try to focus on the eye and then recompose (prefocus on the tree or whatever is close), AFC I only use with birds in flight with auto 5 or 9 focus points (depending on camera) pre focus on where you think they fly by and hope for the best :) the DA* is a bit slow for that anyway but with practice you get some results. Practice as much as you can it does not cost anything to hit the delete button afterwards.
Its important you be patient, watch the birds where they feed, study their behavior and try to get as close as possible without scaring them away.
Attached a few samples see exif at flicker
(ok these where taken with the K70 but guess those focus tips work with most cams)
