Приличный списочек получился, Геннадий! Здорово!


2015-03-22. Дякин Геннадий:

Еще чибиса слышал но не видел, решил все-таки добавить, ну и после переопределения добавилась горная овсянка. А сегодня 22 марта опять с Аскаром прокатились на Сорбулак и добавилось еще 13 видов: белая цапля, широконоска, белоглазая чернеть, курганник, степной орел, малый зуек, травник, черноголовый хохотун, белая трясогузка туркестанский жулан, серый сорокопут, черная ворона, плясунья и зяблик. Т.о. за 2 дня 67 видов. И это при том что куликов пока еще практически нет.

Молодцы! У Вас уже трясогузки )),а мы приглядываемся, но не видели. 9 марта встретили чайку и не поняли (она была одна): то ли зимовала, то ли уже прилетела...
