It took some time before the tits were eating from my hand

I have fed birds from my hand many times, tits, nuthatches, sparrows, but today I managed to record it

It is not an easy thing, because birds do not come on command, and I will not last long with my hand outstretched.

At first I thought that the male great tit was feeding his offspring, and he started to come regularly every few minutes. But after taking a closer look, it turned out that it was a female. She had a much narrower and less outlined black tie on her lower abdomen.

This allowed me to organize myself and prepare my phone to take pictures. Although they are not perfect, because they are situational photos, they still convey the atmosphere of the place and the events.

At one point, the female was downright demanding. If I did not prepare nuts for my hand, she would fly around my head, as if she wanted to bombard me. She would sit on my leg, knee, tablet and beg for what was due her.

At times it looked comical, because I thought I had already satisfied her, and I was minding my own business. Then she would sit on a branch right above me and squawk mercilessly, letting me know it was feeding time. What a treat!

Of course she got what she came for. Today the situation repeated itself, but the tit was much calmer, she would sit on my hand and watch me for a few seconds. An extraordinary experience.
