Beskrivelse: Siberian Buff-bellied Pipit. This site has become a regular wintering site for this rare species, only 20 minutes from Jerusalem. More images on my <a href='http://nubijar.blogspot.com/2010/11/sbbp.html'>blog</a>.
Beskrivelse: Ringed as part of a research carried out by Sameh Darawshe of the Hebrew University. In this region, Short-toed Eagles feed mainly on rodents which they hunt by following tractors ploughing fields.
Hi Yoav..
You are right about the Siberian White Cranes - these two individuals were the last birds to be seen at Bharatpur. They left Bharatpur on febuary 28 1999 and did not return the following winther.
Indeed a shame - they were a real delicacy when visiting Keoladeo Nationalpark.
Best regards
