Kim-Asar gorge. Ile Alatau National Park.

Murky and some times very murky day. Not spring but almost summer is in the city, but in the mountains there are still a lot of snow. But the spring is come in, the birds sing the song. I heard Tits, probably Great Tits and Coal Tits. The Black-throated Accentors sing a lot too. I saw singing Accentors on archa (juniper-bushes) and on spruce-trees. Other observed birds: one Wren, many Magpies, pair of Carrion Crow, flock of Grey-headed Goldfinches, one Kestrel, several Red-mantled Rosefinches (but one only very beauty pinkish male), one Grey Wagtail, one Tit-Warbler (?), and very unruffled Nutcracker. I heard the singing similar to singing of Blackbird. In the stones I noted the male of Blue-capped Redstart, and in the gorge's exit the large mixed flock of Chaffinches and Bramblings was occurred. Males of Chaffinhes and Bramblings already have bright breeding plumage. Unfortunately murky weather didn't have possibility to make good photo shots.
