I've spend both yesterday and today to figure out if I can fix the disappearing birds from all mods, but unfortunately it isn't possible as it's something with the vfx itself which makes this to happen. Besides the small birds mods, also the placeable crow has this same problem of disappearing after zooming out too far or switching to another lot.  What these two vfx have in common, is that normally, they are both attached to an in-game object which will only show the vfx after a certain interaction has be done.

For the birds this is something with the bird feeder from the Backyard Stuff pack and for the crow it's something with the scarecrow that came with the Seasons pack.

Now I can't make these vfx to stop disappearing, but what I could do to the Bird Bath and Breadcrumbs + Small birds, is add an On/Off switch to them for if they DO disappear.
So if you notice the birds have been gone, you first need to switch the vfx off, and after that switch it on again for the birds to re-appear. I think this is easier then replacing the entire object as it can be done while in live mode.
Another thing I've changed for the Breadcrumbs object, is replacing all sitting birds for birds that fly in and out all the time as this vfx only disappears when leaving the lot. It's also easier now to grab the object as you can grab the entire footprint instead of only the small breadcrumbs itself.

As for the placeable birds (and the placeable crow), I can't do anything about it as the main problem with these is, that you can't find the object back after the vfx disappears. So for these I will just mention this in their descriptions, so people who want to use them for screenshots or videos will still be able to use them, though with the recommendation to delete the objects after the screenshots or videos have been made (unless you placed the objects on places you can easily remember, as they can still be removed and/or replaced manually).

So the next thing I will be doing (probably friday), is adding these extra texts to the descriptions of the Placeable Bird pack mods and the Placeable Crow mod.
I guess they all will be downloadable for my Patrons this friday and that the public release will have to wait for the weekend or next week.
