Канатбек Кенжегулов: Спасибо Анна!

Анна Ясько: Согласна, по окрасу это скорее большая.


2023-09-27. to photo # 07160337501 (European Turtle Dove)

Анна Ясько: У меня тоже такие подозрения в пользу большой горлицы именно по цвету затылка. Полосы сбоку шеи сизые, не белые.

Анна Ясько: Садовая камышевка.

Анна Ясько: Поздравляю, Канатбек!

Анна Ясько: Может она ее поджала? Иногда, бывает, кулики стоят на одной ноге.


2023-09-27. to photo # 08480028701 (Eastern Imperial Eagle)

Александр Нефёдов: Ирина, похоже их 2 - взрослый и молодой.


2023-09-27. to photo # 00050657901 (Steppe Eagle)

Александр Нефёдов: Здорово, особенно взрослые! Геннадий, может быть стоило разделить серию из разных птиц на несколько?


2023-09-27. to photo # 08420052501 (Pied Avocet)

Ильдар Халитов: Как интересно птица потеряла одну ногу? Щука откусила?


2023-09-27. to photo # 03460272601 (European Turtle Dove)

Федор Карпов: И эту птицу я считаю большой горлицей


2023-09-27. to photo # 07160337501 (European Turtle Dove)

Федор Карпов: В коричневом цвете затылка мне видится все же большая горлица.

Канатбек Кенжегулов: Спасибо!


2023-09-27. to photo # 07160339005 (River Warbler)

Канатбек Кенжегулов: Спасибо Федор! Андрей также подтвердил. Лайфер тогда!

Федор Карпов: То что держалась в стороне, ещё ни о чем не говорит.

Kostanay region. Karabalyk district. Mikhailovka

A well-flying fledgling with undergrown tail feathers was found near the village of Mikhailovka (Kostanay region), 5 km from the border with Russia. As known, the Mistle Thrush in the territory of Kazakhstan nests in the forests of the Kokchetav Uplands, in the eastern part of the Kazakh Uplands and in the mountains from Altai to the Western Tien Shan (Gavrilov, 1999). A new find of a juvenile bird allows the possibility of nesting of the Mistle Thrush in the Kostanay region. Gavrilov E.I. 1999. Fauna and distribution of birds in Kazakhstan. Almaty: 1-198.

Сергей Л. Волков: Действительно, теперь видно. По окраске головы и крупному клюву мне кажется, что это черноголовая трясогузка.
