    Western Siberia Calidris red-necked or minuta

    Thank you very much for such an exhaustively detailed description! Dwatsonbirder, you are more like Sherlock Holmes in birding! For three years now, I have been seeing the Red-necked Stint in mid-August on an island in a reservoir on the Ob River in Novosibirsk. Apparently, there is a...

  5. Homo sibiricus

    Russian mothers?

    Bjorn, I am from Siberia. I am interested in the history of ornithology in Tomsk and other cities of Siberia. And all these personalities are known to me from Russian sources. I usually don't have to translate their names into English. But everything that concerns the historical setting in which...

    Russian mothers?

    You are right! I am sorry, This was my incorrect translation of Герман Иоганзен name into English. Herman E. Johansen yes, definitely. So. An ornithological society existed in Tomsk since 1915. The founders of the society were several young people. Some of them were TSU students, but for...

    Great Grey Owl Behavior

    Is not a fact. GGO often gather together in confined areas and hunt in such a way that several birds can be seen at once. In addition, Ggo usually allows people to come within close range. If a person is experienced and persistent and knows good lands where owls hunt every year, then anything is...

    Birds of western Siberia

    In July I started rafting down the Berd River. This is the only mountain river in the Novosibirsk region. Although Berd also has a rather calm character. This allows you not to be afraid for your camera and binoculars. I wanted to see golden eagles. Indeed, having rafted 40 kilometers along the...

    Birds of western Siberia

    Hi! Another summer is over. About a month we spent in the Altai and Sayan mountains. I already mentioned Chuya steppe. Here we were lucky to meet a family of Indian geese. Parents and three goslings rafted downstream and lingered on swampy lakes along the river. On the third day after we met...
