Aspara. In the morning in Aspara village in the little lake I observed Coots with juveniles and Moorhens, two Little Bitterns flew by, I shot one of them. But later two Night Herons flew by. The same case was yesterday but with Marsh Harrier. I didn't identify Herons immediately and long time looked them, but when I identified them and want to made photo the time was out. Today's Night Herons in fly were quite distinguished from same-sized gulls and other herons and I was fascinated looking to them flight. Also in Aspara morning I saw Oriental Turtle Doves and many Long-tailed Shrikes and in afternoon near Aspara I watched the nest of White Stork in which the Stork stood and clacked by bill. By the way the locals told me that there are not one but three nests of White Storks in the Aspara area.
Aisha-Bibi. In the memorial complex Aisha-Bibi where I was in afternoon the birds were pleasured me. Firstly Desert Finches which I saw first time, secondly the Golden Oriole which I want to note specially because Oriole not flew off but flew to me and postured sitting in enclosure. Other birds were Common and Rosy Starlings and European Bee-eaters.
Karatau foothills. The road along the northern slopes of Karatau is repaired, the cars on road were a bit therefore birds became more noticable. Directly in asphalt I saw Crested Larks, Tawny Pipits, Rollers, European Bee-eaters, Collared Pratincoles (probably nesting birds), Corn Buntings. Later I saw Lapwings and Ruddy Shelducks in the little roadside lakes and Chukar Partridges in the roadside rocks. Near the road there are large lakes: Akkol and Bilikol, but I didn't visited lakes because of time out. On rocks near Karatau town I observed Pied Wheatears.
