The winter is considered by many nature filmmakers to be the least attractive time of the year. Nature seems to have fallen asleep in many places and real nature experiences are rare. The many migratory birds travel to their southern wintering grounds, some animal species hibernate and our landscapes seem almost lifeless, especially on gray winter days. To make matters worse, there has been a lack of snow for years. At least in the northern part of Germany.
Tip: By the way, I took the pictures with the camera "Panasonic Lumix DC-GH5SEG-K" (is available here*). The lens was the "Panasonic H-RS100400E9" (is available here*).
On closer inspection, however, it becomes clear that even mild winters like the last one have particularly beautiful sides. Countless geese, siskins and whooper swans spend the winter with us, the Goshawks start mating and the Goldfinches raid the sunflower fields.
The sun also plays into the hands of us filmmakers and photographers. The fact that the sun doesn't rise completely all day means that there are perfect conditions even at lunchtime for any shots. So you can get over the fact that the day ends up being a little shorter.
Enjoy nature experiences in winter on video
My most beautiful shots from this winter in this little movie at Wildlife Blog compiled.
Now I'm already looking forward to the best time of the year. You can already feel nature coming back to life outside. Spring will hopefully have many surprises in store again this year. Until then, I hope you enjoy my nature experiences from this winter.
Many greetings,
PS: Here you can find my personal Nature film websitewhere you can learn more about me and my work. Also feel free to look at my Wildlife Highlights from 2018 an.
