You have lost me completely now Kevin :eek!:, I also use single point focus but that has nothing to do with AF mode like 'One shot' or AI servo, you can use single point or multiple AF points in either of these modes. 'One shot' does not mean single AF point it just means that the focus is good for 1 shot (ie the Camera will focus only once). The number of AF points has not been mentioned once in this thread as far as I can remember.I'm not going to dispute your findings and it's clear it's working out for you. I'm trying to imagine for myself if I would have been able to get these images without single point focus. I'm not seeing it.
BTW some beautiful birds in your post Kevin, superb colours - out UK birds are mostly fairly drab in comparison.
