There are rainy days in Ust-Kamenogorsk, last night the rain turned to morning snow. Because morning is without precipitation I made the short walk to next parks. Park of Dzhambul. At 8 am it was very dark, so when I noticed little Warblers under the bush I take photo with ISO 3200 and exposition 1/20 sec. Photos are blurry but the Hume’s Warbler on photo is well identified. When the dark it’s very difficult to find a little brown bird but even more difficult to trace its movement. I noticed the little bird in low spruce-tree and took photos as I could. Then bird quickly flew from one tree to another, I traced it very hard. In the end bird stayed in large spruce-tree, but when I approached bird flys to green fence. I took some photos then bird was again moving between trees and I lost it. It is Taiga Flycatcher in my opinion. Some time I was checking all spruce-trees in park but noticed little bird in high branches. I guessed the Flycatcher but when I shot it in the little spruce-tree I see it is Chiffchaff.

Then I moved to park Zhastar. I didn't believe to any significant bird therefore my camera was in the bag. But in vain, because Peregrine Falcon low and slowly flew above me.
