עידן הקרח - לראשונה מאז 1986 ובפעם הראשונה אי פעם, בצפון הארץ - נצפה בישראל ברווז קרח, שלא נראה בארץ, 40 שנה.
אתמול (שישי), מצא הצפר גיא שביט, ברווז קרח נקבה, במאגר קולחין, הסמוך לקיבוץ הגושרים, שבצפון עמק החולה.
בחסות הפסקת האש, צפרים רבים נהרו היום (שבת) לאזור, שרק יממה קודם, היה תחת אש כבדה מלבנון, וצפו באורחת הנדירה.
"ברווז הקרח, דוגר בחוג הקוטב הצפוני. אזור החריפה הקבוע שלו, הוא צפון אירופה וצפון אמריקה", מסביר ד"ר יואב פרלמן, מנהל מרכז הצפרות, בחברה להגנת הטבע.
בחברה להגנת הטבע, מסבירים כי הוא נצפה בישראל חמש פעמים בעבר, בין 1979 ל - 1986, כולן באילת ומאז לא נראה בישראל, 40 שנה, עד אתמול.

The local Eagle Owl male, such a cool bird. I have known this guy for 10 years now, he is a classic "Aharoni" Eagle Owl, showing integrate features between the Northern Eagle Owls and the southern birds. Rather small, very pale and the eyes are pale orange, a beauty!
The tune of our evenings...
A local Scops Owl firing away.
Digiscoped with @SwarovskiOptik scope yesterday.

Mother Spotted Hyena with breakfast delivery for her cubs. Shot last week in the Ngorongoro crater in Tanzania.
Stir fry.
Last week in Tanzania we watched this Hamerkop as it worked a puddle, quietly stalking frog after frog. What an incredible bird!

Spring is in the air.
Nature is the only real getaway.
So much beauty... Anemones are blooming, birds are singing , seasons are changing, although time is standing still.
Too old they said...
I say hold my beer 😉
Die 2023
May 2024 be so much better.

2 months,Two months that have changed us all. October 7 beat us down, exposing ultimate evil and hate. The horrors unleashed hidden powers in us all, the days that followed brought unity strength and a purpose. This war is for our future, our kids and our home... we will prevail
A video of a missile hitting a Palestinian village nearby, sent by a dear friend. Several more were intercepted but one hit, luckily no one got hurt.
Hamas fires at civilian concentrations, not caring where they hit, even if it's their own Palestinian "brothers".

Welcome home Ohad!
God only knows what your fragile 9 year old soul had to endure for the past 49 days.
We will not stop until every single one of the hostages return home and the monsters that abduct kids and 80 year olds are sent to hell.

227 to go...
Our hearts are smiling this evening, but this is far from over.

🚨 As an Israeli citizen I would like to send a message to those of you who follow after the situation here.
You may have heard that 50 Israeli women and children hostages are set to be freed from Hamas this week. It's crucial to understand that this release isn't an act of kindness or a sudden moral shift on Hamas' end. These terrorists are currently using 240 men, women, and children as bargaining chips.
After 46 days of a measured military response in the Gaza Strip, Hamas has been compelled to play its hand. Now, we find ourselves in a 4-day pause in Gaza, a component of the deal Israel negotiated for the release of these hostages. In the upcoming days, there will be significant pressure on Israel to extend this pause and refrain from military action.
It's essential to emphasize that, without the military advantage gained in recent weeks, Hamas wouldn't have released our citizens. Without a continued military response, we risk abandoning 200 hostages to a grim fate. Israel remains unwavering in its commitment to leaving no one, man, woman, or child, behind. The fight for their freedom continues.

Following a long night of training and patrol, had a coffee outside this morning and found a Hume's Warbler calling in the yard... Amazing how a 9 gram bird from Siberia can make me smile even during these crazy days...

Finally some honesty from the @BBC
Refreshing.
What other army does this? Not exactly aligned with the "genocide narrative".
I have pride to be a part of this, to remain humane while fighting monsters.
The people of Gaza are not the enemy, Hamas is, when they are gone, life will be better for both sides.
And now as expected Hamas is shooting civilians trying to leave the hospitals.. yup read it again before the media turns it around. The world needs to know who we are dealing with, they will spare nothing now that we are knocking on the door...

Hey @AP @Reuters @CNN is joining a terrorist group slaughtering babies part of your usual job requirements? Or is it just for your freelance reporters in Gaza?
This is from Hassan Eslahia's own Facebook page.
