Even songbirds do this with my parents. If they're outside and the feeder is empty, they'll perch on the closest (but not too close) spot and squack until my parents move, then they'll perch a little closer to the feeder and repeat if my parents follow them.
If they're not outside, they'll sit outside the door or even fly into the garage if it is open and chirp and squack until they come out.
It's amusing and more than a little impressive to see since songbirds aren't much associated with intelligence like corvids are.
