notes	拍摄冠小嘴乌鸦之旅。阿克苏河是塔里木河最大的支流，它又由两条支流：托什干河和昆玛力克河汇合而成。兵团农一师四团就位于这两条河汇合前形成的台地上--我出生在这里，直到18岁时离开，对这的山川河流颇有感情，当然，还包括故乡的鸟。以前没看鸟之前，没感到这儿有多少种鸟，在儿时的印象里，只有每年开春时铺天盖地在空中盘旋的乌鸦和场院里觅食的数量巨大的麻雀。按照马鸣老师的《新疆鸟类名录》这里应该分布有小嘴乌鸦的sharpii亚种--即新独立为种的冠小嘴乌鸦，是冬候鸟。此行驾车回四团办事，还带有一个重要任务---拍摄冠小嘴乌鸦。新疆南部的鸟较北部少，冬季尤是。但到了四团，看到乌鸦的种类不少，尤其冠小嘴乌鸦为多。11月27日到29日用了三天时间完成了拍摄任务（唯一的遗憾是天气不佳，大多是阴天和小雪，影响了拍摄质量）。在一片台地上，摊晒着大片红辣椒，渡鸦，秃鼻乌鸦，小嘴乌鸦，冠小嘴乌鸦在这集群觅食，难道乌鸦爱吃辣椒？经过仔细观察，原来是捕食在此吃辣椒的老鼠---当然吃完肉后再来点辣子换换口味也是不错的。渡鸦和冠小嘴乌鸦比较怕人，尤其怕单筒加小数码的装备，猎枪被禁是近十年的事情，大约它们的记忆中还有当年被杀戮的血雨腥风？（乌鸦是长寿的，哈萨克称之为百岁鸟）。此行还拍到了小嘴乌鸦和冠小嘴乌鸦的杂交种--上体黑，象小嘴乌鸦；小体灰白，象冠小嘴乌鸦。这次冠小嘴乌鸦在温宿，乌什靠天山附近都看到了，但阿克苏市及以西均未能记录到。路过和硕的曲惠时记录到5只棕斑鸠。
