Day is murky and windy. From time to time a little rain drops. Apparently birds are a little. All migrant birds departed, only common residents stayed. Because of murky weather there were not large raptors. Once only I saw high soared Lammergeier and also two Long-legged Buzzards on the road near the settlements. Black…
Today is my this month first birding tour. Day is sunny but windy. In Romit gorge but correctly in its first branch gorge I saw a lot of birds. All the same wild (even comparative wild) nature very distinguishes on city. Today I haven't seen any Mynahs, Sparrows or Laughing Dove, no one bird specific to city. Today's c…

Short trip. Saw only one Golden Oriole and Red-rumped Swallows.

Most visible today birds were Masked Wagtails and Spotted Flycatches. Other birds were several Carrion Crows, one Hobby and one Common Sandpiper (…
My first trip to the nature, to Romit gorge. The gorge is about 30 km from Dushanbe. Having missed by the nature I often asked to stop the car. On pastures near the road I has seen a female of Hen Harrier, Long-legged Buzzard and Crested Larks. Buzzard easy sat on a cable column and almost did not pay attention to the…
