notes	近日找到了新疆科学院生地所鸟类标本数据的网站，发现不少标本采自沙湾县宁家河和金沟河，琢磨那的鸟种会比较多，于是我们今天按计划去了沙湾。临行前，咨询了石河子徐捷最近的鸟况（他那挨着沙湾），他的意见是现在青黄不接-许多繁殖鸟已迁走，过境鸟和冬候鸟还没来，不是好的观鸟时机。但我们的准备工作已做好，最后还是按计划出发了-碰碰运气吧。此行被徐捷说中--鸟种和数量都很少，原因大概除了正好赶在了鸟换班期间外，还和河谷两侧山上的石灰石矿被多处开采及络绎不绝的运矿车有关。于是决定中途收兵，放弃再去金沟河计划，相约择日再战，将两天的计划缩为一天，打道回府--心情郁闷啊。好在老天不负有心人，归途在山下找到了一位超级模特--一只蓝胸佛法僧站在一段木头上，光线，高度，角度，背景，距离（5米左右）都极佳，这不正是我等色迷梦寐以求的射击机会吗！坐在车的掩体里，把相机架在车窗上的沙袋上，观察近在咫尺的模特摆着各种造型，不失时机地按下快门，真是爽啊，不出好片才怪呢！一扫此前的郁闷心情。此行全程约500公里。
