Almaty, Republic Square.

The warm and sunny day. The Robin was not so timid as before, but my attention worried it. Robin firstly fed on the thawed grass until the Blackbird chased it. Later I saw it were pecking the seeds under the thuja and eating berries on the bush. Robin like other birds prefer to eat the berries on the sunny side of bush, probably because the berries were thawed by the sun. Some Lesser Whitethroats were feeding the berries too, others ones were pecking the birch catkins. One Whitethroat was bathing in the water droplets which were gathered on the leaves of the bush. In addition to Robin and Whitethroats I also saw Bramblings, House Sparrows, Blackbirds, Mynahs, Hooded Crows, Rooks, Magpies, Pigeons, Great Tits.
