Almaty. Republic Square.

Three years ago I saw Nightjar first time. Today in the same place I saw already nine Nightjars. I found four birds on the yesterday's places. Four birds were sandy color. Three birds took off when I try to close them. Two of them were males with the white signal spots on the wings. There are many singing birds in the bushes. Saw only Common and Lesser Whitethroats and Common Nightingale. From the public birds I saw Turkestan Shrike and female of Stonechat only.
