Glen - that 400 lens is lovely an sharp
Love the OOF background in #1 - looks like the body/wing is super sharp and maybe the eye a little softer?
#2 looks lovely and crisp - nice lighting as well, were these later in the day?
How do you go about setting up AF etc to capture them? - they must be a nightmare moving around so quickly and being so small?

Not sure why the eye looks a little softer, to be honest I never noticed.
These were taken just after 2:00pm with the sunlight shining through a small clearing in the woods.
As for Focusing, I was stood about ten feet away, behind a tree, from where the seed was on the log. I rested the lens against the tree for support and focused on the log so the auto-focus didn't have to re-adjust too much when the birds landed and waited for the birds to land. Also the Canon 400mm L is a pretty quick lens when it comes to focusing so that helps too.
