A bit of a squeeze

This little Blue Tit was obviously finding it easier to feed inside the bird feeder!
I need some advice please. My new camera has a super zoom lens but is so sensitive and I shake so much most of my photos are coming out blurry. Do/should I really use a tripod? Being impatient by the time I would set everything up the subject would be long gone? Advice please.
This is a great capture. A tripod definitely helps with the shaking but agree that unless you have time to sit and wait ....

You can borrow my tripod if you like. I like it for flowers - only used once - but hard with wildlife unless you are very patient. Not my middle name! Funny how he has climbed inside.

Thank you Cally for the offer. Andrew has one which was in the loft so it came down, I looked at it, dusted it and stuck it in the study! Yes patience is not my middle name either!!
