We are having a difficult time here in Israel, but the birds are continuing with their own routine. Spring is in it's pick and many migrant birds are around.
​Attached is a short video of a Nubian Nightjar a few minutes after it was being ringed. This beautifull bird is nesting around the Arava valley and the dead sea area and is hard to watch as it is only being seen in a few specific sites. Enjoy.

As fall migration starts to kick in, spent a bit of time down south in the Negev. It is still hot in the Negev area which leads many birds for a morning drink . 2 beautifull Black bellied Sandgrouses were among the many species who came to drink.
