Why isn’t AF picking up these birds?

Why f/16 and why 1/60th? IS is great for static subjects but that feeder moves in the breeze. The bird makes small movements.

I’d be at f/8 with a minimum shutter speed of 1/500 or 1/1,000 and auto iso. Your R6 can handle the ISO’s

Wasn’t laying much attention, had it in auto and was concentrating on the autofocus points.
