small between russia and the united states of america recent date but one of the problems the two countries have and on well we've seen progress definitely and last year were not involved by the new obama administration had announced this reset policy but it was still very early stages and there had been really no successes at all today we you know it looks quite different both sides of learned to i think look at the point of view of the other side and the policy has moderated we have it on to control agreement all but so many things that i had i mean there's a question of whether the united states will even ratify the agreement because we're going to have a congressional election in november where the opposition may gain control over the congress so that and that's only the beginning i mean the agenda is very wide and very deep and there's been limited progress which is good but it's oh it's only the beginning we're talking here about it would take ten years to work through these things.

the people of astrakhan the proud of the volga river russia's most famous river drains into the caspian sea in the astra and region. from above it looks as though the wide and deep river runs into an obstacle one hundred thirty kilometers from the caspian sea there it splits into hundreds of small narrow channels this area is known as the volga delta it's almost a triangle shaped most of its territory covered with water. to go from bastrop than south which you'll soon see feels totally list includes a. treasure goodell to fish come here to spoon. fish attract migrating birds. million beds of three hundred species come here the spring and autumn it's the centuries people from all over the us just south that

come here to fish and hunt unfortunately that many species perished as a result. more the at that time women like to dress up they had ants with feathers hair and thought this will very much invoke the heron only has five feather is on its head so its thousands of parents were killed it's in the name of fashion while pelicans were opposed by the million to make ornaments. in the early twentieth century the volga delta was a desolate place a special expedition that came here from moscow in one nine hundred twelve found no trace of the the swans or pelicans. urgent measures were needed to save the deltas natural environment. nine hundred seventeen socialist revolution the government decided to create a nature reserve here. at the ball and there was a civil war at the time the country's coffers were empty and the future was unclear

that's what the situation was like when they started to create a nature reserve into balkan doubt. it's hard to reach the reset for master it's a hundred kilometers through flooded fields and the ferry to the other bank of. a fifteen kilometer stretch of dirt road once you've reached the end of it you don't need the car anymore you have to take a boat because there's not much ground from all the way to the caspian sea. if you. reach the boundary of the nature reserve everywhere there are signs prohibiting entry and the person found trespassing can be punished by the rules. in all fairness such strict measures produced posted for exults soon after the nature reserve was founded. here with news that may be the first one nets were found

here and the first terran colonies were discovered in the reserve as well supposedly that's cool retains the harry detrick code of subsequent generations the queer get it. all to officially islands of the early spots of drawing down to. the house ranges and dogs with their families. scientists doing research they hit too. early in the morning on the phone to just dimitri bone the ref and ranger rat to beg off set out on an expedition to make a record of the birds in the reserve all right let's go today to the secret channel to see what's going on there and over there will be how high the water is we'll look at the tide marks yes we'll check them in. the toy box in the rituals act as natural measuring posts for the stuff. as ranges make the rounds of the reserve they're supposed to see whether the tide box have been

washed away is difficult to see though from the boats if they are secure enough. they make the rounds once a month during high season each time they follow the same route. in the fall of just puts down a description of each bird he sees in a notebook. the data is then processed and entered into a fifty year old book chronicling the state of the natural environment. everything is put on record even the first groping over from for example the first turtle emerging from the water just some date and the first crossed snakes sneaking out of its hideout the first darling the first night the for. swallow the sun when baby birds start to leave their nests is also noted. the white tailed eagle is one of the biggest birds of prey in the astral and nature

reserve. these birds have a wingspan of up to two and a hof meters. the white tailed he who is the fourth biggest bird in europe birds of the species in the volga tells him mostly feed on fish they either catch the fish themselves or grab them from other birds such as comrades. sometimes they call she'd cormorants by pretending to attack them when you normally they don't go out or cormorants but as soon as they sense danger they drill each down to fish and get out of the way as fast as they can eagles get the prize crowns are their rivals or they too trying to pick up the fish in other words white tailed eagles and crowns live off the cormorants of work. white tailed eagles are not as common in any other area of russia as they are in the

volga delta. so say one of the darkest habitats for these birds in the world. about two hundred eagle pez nests in the reserve alone. come to astrakhan for the expressed desire of watching them in the wilds. of near. a visiting german camera man was so thrilled by dozen white tailed eagles flying overhead that he told the driver to hump the car there and then started filming them when i told him that fine white tailed eagles were nothing out of the ordinary he said only a few such eagle's nest and in his country all of them in germany had been recorded and certified and there were under constant observation. in recent years people with cameras have been exploring the underwater part of the full goodell to. kill this field office of

fish biologists and kill people in norfolk as an underwater cameraman in the morning they go to one of the remote channels. and clear ideal conditions for. nearly sixty fish species in habits of all the data including. their famous for their black caviar. is a total ban on fishing in the rest of its employees are only allowed to use fishing rods even so the local people will recount their interest at fishing tales. that i can show how big it was even if i spread my arms to the limit imagine this tall man holding a catfish while part of its tail about half a metre long is on the ground. during high water the fish move to the flood plain to spawn it's here that baby fish scramble out of hard rare data the receding water

takes them back to the river. both fry and fish come here after spawning at the warm. water stimulates underwater vegetation this is a comfortable place for the young it's like a kindergartner. for the time being they're almost new fish in this aquatic nursery so the cameraman switches his attention to the plants. occurring is fairly strong here it seems this tangle of. service as a filter purifying the water flowing through it. as a result it becomes clear. when i go down there i clearly see that the remote bottom and the seaweed are all covered with mud. even in the summer that clear water makes it possible to see that the seaweed is so

thick it looks like a forest. but also find there. some of the most beautiful flowers in the. what's much here you can see above gradually from the water the interesting thing about water lilies is that they conceal themselves under water during the night and at dawn onto the water surface to bloom again. a little to says the most famous plums of the delta. a few decades ago the sacred symbol of the buddhists took up nearly a quarter of a hit. today says occupy twenty nine thousand. what. this is a lotus leaf for morrison it's a boy the water will slide down like mercury. these reddish leaves differ significantly from the others look at how these leaders parker.

propeller. fortunately the warden you know you can easily lose your way in a rethink it it's not like a forest here you can tell where north especially if the skies over cost and the stars are nonphysical and rethink its constraint for many many kilometers from the queue. the noise of an engine is heard from a far it's there's peace and quiet it signals that there's a trespasser in the area the ranger immediately calls based with the gods. a few minutes later a rat finds coaches next to one of the real dominance dimitry there is a net. oh yes i see it. the net is full of fish most likely it was last checked a long time ago. the bulk of the fish

dead. may have killed them all. they then set the surviving fish free which was one of the kind of fish is it anyway shall we let them go dimitri yes sure. the boat continues on its way to mourn that some found there by the ranger space again l.o.l. oh there there are three minutes here again so shall i remove them right i'm going to do it right away. empties one of the nets and leave it in place dogs will come here in the evening to ambush the poacher. in the evening while decent parents descend on the area. here has little fear of humans they know from experience that they will not be disturbed by all that in the

a far away audience to speak to me. is the most common in the delta. the number of cormorants runs into hundreds of thousands. of a schools of climate is such a fish this staple food. but hit their prey can be found everywhere the delta. former incident two willing to sense what they call in his head. this clown is considered to be a fairly young one it's a p. . only forty years ago. today numbers about fifty thousand nests. thinner and less look like round funnels thirty to forty centimeters in diameter these shallow funnels are made from tree to packed reeds. one trees might be home to schools of nests. on scorching hot days and old

birds on the edge of their nests flapping their wings to cool it down they also make sure that their hatchlings are kept out of the sun assume through the baby beds and then how to fly in the interim. at that time flocks of cormorants or spectacle on a par with a hitchcock movie. common sense perkins often go to fish to get a pelican stay are less common in the reserve. just what we often feed together when it sports are sure to begin circling over it. they also want their share. you would be hard pushed to find chemicals in the delta. these very cautious beds nests as far away from people as possible. to see

pelicans you would need to enter the area i think. the focus meets the caspian sea . as a delta looks like a large lake the first of islands in it. but it's still part of the volga river here it stretches two hundred kilometers wide. the flood waters right now are about one point four meters deep at other times the depth is between a meter and one point two meters this is the middle of the volga delta. there are a lot of fish here because of the river of the thoroughly warmed by the sun there is a wealth of vegetation and a good deal of food for fish and birds down there. back in the one nine hundred fifty s. there were one thousand five hundred pelicans nests in the astrakhan reserve. since then that number has dropped to five hundred. it's very difficult to spot

a colony of pelicans in the thick reeds. they spend an hour looking for one before the boat runs into a pelican colony. baby birds hatched here a short time ago. at the. colony was here forty years ago but then they disappear that it has been grown in the past four years in the beginning there were only five nast's then forty and now we have one hundred chan. at first glance pelicans look like very clumsy birds they have talking both. short stick legs and their tail is barely visible. less many religions will fail than the sacred animals muslims believe that

a pelican brought stones for the construction of mecca and its bill. and in europe the package is a symbol of parents who love mentioned ties it perkins roots their chests akin to that beaks to feed hungry babies with blood. bulletins play with each other only for the duration of one season building in tickets. at first so i stay look like a pan of garbage twigs. there are two or three baby beds two in the. they're born blind they can't. fuzz starts to grow seven days later after ten weeks they can fly.

there are only a handful of them are here and we try not to disturb them if we can help it we do keep records of them but we don't do any detailed research. even the gods make a point of not approaching islands with pelicans and nesting in fact the gods live in floating captains and they visit the ivan delta they stay there for only three days at a time. have you seen many pelicans nicholai there are about a hundred nests here and in grown ups there are some but others are still very young. compared to pelicans there are thousands of swan nests in the delta. in the last century the swan population is rapidly shrinking due to the hunting.

cannot fly so poachers would take that opportunity to cram them into nets and beat them with sticks. now that catching swans is prohibited the population has started to increase. in the fifty s. only five pairs of swan nested in the boulder delta but now the numbers have gone up hundreds of times over us. this one the scene is a symbol of devotion as it was thought that once pet they stay together for the. life. as soon as they settle down in a large plot and start building nests as a rule other birds anyway and thereby welcome. people because they're one of the appearing nesting season the female seats on the

nest while the male swims around to guard against intruders. swans are very strong the birds they don't like the presence of all the birds especially glee's sometimes swans even when she's out from a shared habitat. move the there are five to seven eggs in the swans nest. or something frightens them that they leave their nests. crews often use this tactic to steal the eggs. or. a couple of always accompany motor boats when they reach the end of their section they hand over the boat to another couple of grounds the man in the boat is to preoccupy its noses when the boat approaches the nest the noise of the engines scares the bird away. to get into the nest just steal the eggs as

a result the set this room and. this called the floating venice of russia for its calm and beautiful nature. people come here every year to find a quiet place under the sun and in peace. the dusk descends on the river maybe duck enough to see a spectacular sea talks of swans fly. into the sunset. are

not stuff going to come back. the rally will sell lots of beer will. stay high will wear uniforms and little damage is down the black and then moving but very little damming the white. and they are the key to our problem our own right.
