    Даулет Турысбеков: Круто. Новое открытие.

    2019-12-27. to photo # 03210000902 (Coal Tit)

    Даулет Турысбеков: Надо добавить на карту

    Ясько Анна: Тем не менее это она. Голова без темной шапочки, значит уже не самец чижа. Низ без пестрин, значит и не самка. К тому же клюв у чижика все ж меньше.

    Алёна Шмаленко: Да, есть тут несколько "диких" парков. Спасибо, Малик

    2016-01-12. to photo # 03210000401 (European Greenfinch)

    Алёна Шмаленко: у меня были подозрения, но силуэт как-то на зеленушку не очень похож. Клюв как-будто мельче

    2016-01-11. to photo # 03210000401 (European Greenfinch)

    Анна Ясько: По рисунку крыла и окрасу головы - зеленушка. Переношу.

    Малик Нукусбеков: Круто, серые куропатки в городе Астане!

    Алена, мои поздравление!

    Алёна Шмаленко: Спасибо, Геннадий! Похоже, савки здорово облюбовали Сорбулак.

    Дякин Геннадий: Алена, серия вот это место и дата: http://kz.birds.watch/bkphoto.php?l=ru&s=000501867&n=1. Там было минимум 5 самцов и столько же самок.
