Ile Alatau National Park.

In the chine above former sanatorium "Prosveschenets" there are a lot of Hume's Warblers. These birds cheep on each fir tree on each high bush. It is possible to see Warblers but not to photograph. Because Warblers sing either in deep crowns or in high fir trees. Twice White-bellies Dippers flew along the river, one of them was grey colored juvenile bird. Once saw Common Rosefinch. Bird was not bright male but spotted brownish juvenile bird.

Also saw one Blue Whistling Thrush. I sat after the bush and think that bird didn't spot me. Thrush from time to time jumped under the stub as if there was nest. I tried to search nest but didn't find it. In any case the meeting of Blue Whistling Thrush is always nice. All the more I thought that I will not meet Blue Whistling Thrush in this chine because the building began in this place.
