Kohlmeise / Great Tit - a photo on Flickriver

            Meisen sind zahlenmäßig die häufigsten Gäste in meinem Garten. Sie sind aber auch die unruhigsten, ständig in Bewegung und man hat selten mehr als eine Sekunde Zeit sie anzuvisieren, scharf zu stellen und auszulösen. Wenn man es schafft die Hektik aus dieser Situation etwas herauszunehmen wird das fotografieren leichter. Für dieses Bild habe ich einen kleinen Ast einen halben Meter neben meine Futtersäule gesteckt. Dieser Ast dient den Vögeln jetzt als "Wartehäuschen" wenn an der Futtersäule gerade Stau ist. Die Meise schaut ungeduldig wann ein Platz (von dreien) frei wird. Wenn es zu lange dauert, dann fliegt sie auch mal einfach drauf und verjagt die Konkurrenz. Geduld gehört definitiv nicht zu den Stärken einer Kohlmeise. 

Tits are the most frequent guests in my garden. But they are also the most restless, constantly moving and you rarely have more than a second to find them in the viewfinder, focus and take the shot. If you manage to take the hustle and bustle out of this situation, taking photos becomes easier. For this picture I stuck a small perch half a meter next to my bird feeder. This branch now serves as a “bus stop” for the birds when there is a traffic jam at the feeder. The tit watches impatiently to see when one slot (out of three) becomes available. If it takes too long, then it might just fly on the feeder driving away the competition. Patience is definitely not one of a great tit's strengths.
