At the entrance of park in the pine grove I saw the pair of feeding Greenfinches which I saw in same place last time, and also saw before the leaving the park (but not the pair but three birds). Probably Greenfinches are the resident birds in the park. Lots of Magpies which behaved quiet, without noise and shouting. One Magpie mutely chased the Eastern Buzzard in the sky. In addition to Buzzard there was the Kestrel, both raptors regularly were in my vision. The large flocks of Chaffinches and Buntings were not already, but single Chaffinches sometimes flew by me. Some time I were watching the Pied Wheatears, I saw in total three males and 3-4 females, males were observed all three at once, and females separately. All males had rufous tinge on feathers as in autumn plumage. Pied Wheatears perched on the trees, from which they flew off straight up to the insects, or flew down from the tree to catch insects in the grass. In the spruce and hawberry plantations I watched the dozens of feeding in the grass Black-throated Thrushes. I also saw the Carrion Crow and the flew by three Ducks, the same I saw on March 25 but both then and now I didn't photograph them. At the exit from the park I again saw the active Greenfinches and one singing Grey-headed Goldfinch. Another one Goldfinch I also saw in the city on Gagarin Avenue, near the Utepov street.
