Reiherentenpärchen / Tufted Duck couple

Dieses Pärchen Reiherenten in ihrem Prachtkleid habe ich vor kurzem in der Lüneburger Heide fotografiert. Normalerweise vermeide ich die Mittagszeit wegen der vielen Nachteile beim Licht. Das hier ist mein "Sicherheitsfoto", das ich immer mache, damit ich überhaupt eine Aufnahme habe. Als ich am nächsten Morgen an den kleinen See zurückkam waren die beiden leider nicht mehr da. Weil ich noch kein anderes Foto von Reiherenten habe stelle ich es hier trotzdem ein.
Tech. Detail. Eigentlich sind das zwei einzelne Aufnahmen, die ich in eine montiert habe. Das funktioniert nur wenn sich Aufnahmewinkel, Licht und Farbe zwischen den verschiedenen Fotos nicht groß ändern. Die zugrundeliegenden Bilder habe ich von derselben Stelle im Abstand von ca. 2 Minuten gemacht, deshalb ließen sie sich relativ gut verschmelzen.
Warum haben die Reiherenten so gelbe Augen? www.spektrum.de/news/ornithologie-warum-so-viele-voegel-b...
Um das Bild besonders detailreich sehen zu können, drückt die Tasten l (kleines L) und F11. Beim vergrößern nur durch Anklicken gehen euch viele Details verloren.

I photographed this duck couple in the Lüneburg Heath region (in Lower Saxony). Usually I avoid taking pictures around lunchtime because of the many downsides it brings.This here is my "safety shot" that I always take so I have a picture at all. Unfortunately, when I returned to the small lake the next morning to get an image with better light, the ducks were gone. Because I don't have any other photo of tufted ducks yet, I am posting it here anyway.
Tech Detail. Actually, these are two individual images that I have assembled into one. This only works if the shooting angle, light and colour do not change (much) between the different photos. I took the underlying images from the same spot about 2 minutes apart, so they merged relatively well.
To view this picture with the best resolution in full screen press the "l" (small L) and F11 keys. When enlarging the pic by just mouse clicking you lose quality. Enjoy!
