Observations &endash; havainnointi:

• Systematic observations on field only at Karaganda Nura river area and Kulukol lake &endash;
• systemaattista havainnointia vain Nura-joen alueella Karagandassa ja Kulukol-järvellä.
• Most migration birds already gone &endash;
• useimmat muuttolinnut jo lähteneet.
• Migration of geese delayed because of warm autumn. At the best site, Kulukol Lake only c. 25 000 geese (in 1999 at same time period 400 000 geese).
• Hanhien muutto myöhässä lämpimän syksyn takia. Parhaalla kohteella, Kulukol-järvellä vain n. 25 000 hanhea (v. 1999 samaan aikaan 400 000).

Species &endash; lajit:

• At cities really a few bird species (Corvus, Pica, Columba, Passer, Parus) &endash; kaupungeissa todella vähän lajeja (varies, harakka, pulu, varpunen, talitiainen).
• In countryside most visible Pica (benefitted by vast tree plantings aside roads and rails) and Corvus-species.
• Maaseudulla näkyvimmät lajit harakka (hyötynyt laajoista puuistutuksista teiden ja rautateiden varrella) ja varislinnut.
• Kestrel most common and abundant bird of prey. Lesser Kestrel and Red-footed falcon can be seen aside railways.
• Tuulihaukka yleisin ja runsain petolintu. Pikkutuulihaukan ja Punajalkahaukan voi nähdä junan ikkunasta.

• IMG_5569 = Lake Kulukol, Anser erythropus on sand, Branta ruficollis on shallow water and Anser anser on deeper water. Kulukol-järvellä kiljuhanhia hiekalla ja punakaulahanhia vedessä. Taustalla merihanhia.

  IMG_5567 = Lake Kulukol, Branta ruficollis in main role. Pääasiassa punakauloja.

  IMG_5563 = Lake Kulukol, Anser anser Merihanhia

  IMG_5562 = Lake Kulukol, wolf susden jäljet!

  IMG_5558 = Geese need fresh or only weakly salty water for drinking and resting, Hanhet tarvitsevat makeaa tai väjäsuolaista vettä.

  IMG_5574 = Lake Kulukol, Anser flock Hanhiparvi

  IMG_5533 = Scirpus vegetation in fresh water pond are favoured by migrating birds like Motacilla citreola Muuttolinnut, kuten sitruunavästäräkki suosivat makean veden lampareiden ruoikoita

  IMG_5553 = Lake Kulukol, Tadorna ferruginea

  IMG_5550 = Lake Kulukol, Branta ruficollis

  IMG_5521 = Lake Kulukol, wheat straws and stubble are usually burnt after harvest Sadonkorjuun jälkeen vehnän olki ja sänki useimmiten kulotetaan

  IMG_5440 = huge wheat fields for people and after harvesting for birds Valtiasat vehnäpellot inmisten ruokkimiseen - ja sadonkorjuun jälkeen hanhille!

  IMG_5436 = combine harvesters are working in September around the clock Puimurit töissä ympäri vuorokauden syyskuussa

  IMG_5447 = harvested wheat field - food table for geese Pöytä on katettu!

• Digikameralla kaukoputken läpi Too much atmospheric distrurbance for photography through the Scope. Kazakhstanin Kulukol-järvellä otetut kuvat epäonnistuivat voimakkaan lämpöväreilyn (ja yli 300 m matkan) takia. Tässä yksi parhaita, josta voi hyvällä tahdolla erottaa paitsi vedessä olevat merihanhet, rannalla olevat punakaulahanhet ja niiden joukossa kiljuhanhia. Ehkä koko ryhmä veden äärellä on kiljukkaita.
