the Botanic Garden

Korgalzhyn Natural Reserve, birds and wild tulips

Two things deeply marked me during my trip in Kazakhstan, the people and  the wilderness of the enviroment;
People it's very warm polite honest and friendly they made me feel at home wilderness as well is priceless there;

This is why i promised to Kazakhstan to come back again
Few worlds 'bout Korgalzhyn Reserve, it's one of the most impotant area for birds, it's a steppe with a system of salty and fresh water lakes and rivers;
It's the northest place in the world where flamingos nest, there l you can observe one of the biggest Pelikan colony then steppe, eagle marsh hawk,cranes, skylarks and more and more; I've got as guide a professionals naturalist team , unfortunately i couldn't take  any good picture of birds (too far) anyway i'm posting a couple of shot of the landscape and wild tulips
