Had another 2 great days up north with an avid and friendly birder. We saw quite a lot of birds- the Northern part of israel is now full with birds. Unfortunately we didnt see the Lammergeier (maybe next time....).
After beeing up north for a couple of days we went to the Negev to see some of the unique desert birds such as the crowned sandgrouses and some raptors in the western negev- we manage to see a couple of peregrine falcons and some imperiel eagles.
All in all a very good 3 days birding.
Attached is a list of birds that have been seen during the 3 day tour.

Went for a 1 day tour up north with an avid Birder, comes originally from Germany.

The birds worth mentioning, as i see it, were a couple of Black Vultures at Gamla nature reserve.

rJust returned from a 3 day birding tour to southern Israel. Met a group from singapore, which came to do some birding for the second time with me, in Eilat and from there we started birding in Eilat area heading in time to the Negev area.
