Almaty. Republic Square.

Yesterday during the short-time trip to mountain I shot White-bellied Dipper. Also at lunch time I went to my common birding spot, the Republic Square and found female Bluethroat hidden under the spruce-tree. Bluethroat was very close but didn’t leave the shelter, so I not satisfied by the quality of photos though bird on photos is identified. Today I again visited Bluethroat but bird did not approach to me so close as yesterday. Also I saw female Black Redstart, Lesser Whitetroat, and heard Chiffchaffs in some places. I watched the Wood Pigeons eating last-year acorns too. Pigeons are very calm, I approached to them about to 2 meters, so Pigeon did not fit in frame.
