Picnic time

A stroll can start out so peacefully- blue headed vireo at seeded plants, picture perfect,- till  the characters fly in,  grackle picnic time.  They know how to find food,  and soften it up,- for themselves, for their nestlings. The trick is to grab something, dunk it, wait, pray that nobody else snatches it. If expressions could kill it's the grackle stare.
The chips are being softened, crunched and bill-stored for family distribution.
Now what?!   Shredded wheat!
Frogs lurking. If a little bird flies down it will be frog lunch.
