Almaty. Republic Square.

6.00 - 7.00 am. Found one Nightjar which yesterday saw my wife. Nightjar was scary and I could closed to it only about five meters. Morning on the Square is the Kingdom of singing birds. Mostly Warblers sang, Lesser and Common Whitethroats, Grasshopper Warbler. Warblers are not public birds such as for example Shrikes or Stonechats. Many a time they hide in the thick branches but audible very well. By the way I heard Grasshopper Warbler first time but to examine it did not succeed. Besides Warblers saw female of Stonechat, Bluethroat and certainly Great Tits, Mynahs, Blackbirds and Greenfinches.
