- Once again the scenery was breathtaking,
but all too soon we had to return to the Observatory Hotel

- We were delighted to awake to a clear
sky, superb views of the mountains all around us and snowcocks
calling. After breakfast, we drove up to another observatory
situated 3300m up in the mountains. On the way up, we had
good views of an Altai Accentor and a few Water Pipits.
At the observatory we immediately picked up a fine male
Güldenstädt's Redstart, which was quickly followed by both
Red-billed & Yellow-billed Choughs....Vaughan

Kazakhstan August
2000
- The previous evening had seen an unseasonable
snow storm in the mountains so the boss-Algirdas- said that we'd
better postpone the mountains for a day and we set off for Lake
Bilikul, stopping at a gorge in the Karataut hills on the way.-
the bird list the first day in a new area is bound to be good.
ours was 84 species. rather a long list to put here, but included
many Lesser Grey Shrikes, Red-headed Buntings, Collared Pratincoles.
and raptors such as Montagu's Harners and Long-legged Buzzards.
The views across the plains to the high peaks of the Tien Shan
were stunning and I was eager to get closer to them....Dave
