The last couple of days Meg and I have been on our own. We left Boris to get on with his own life, and we headed north. Yesterday we spent around the northern portion of the Sea of Galilee and on up into the Golan Heights. Some great bird viewing in the late afternoon at the Hula Valley Nature Preserve, temporary residence for thousands upon thousands of migrating birds. Cranes currently seem to be in the majority, but some nice ducks as well. I didn't have my "birding kit" with me but have a few marginally acceptable captures. Today was mostly travel as we headed south along the Jordan River and the Dead Sea to Ein Gede Kibbutz where we'll stay for a couple of night. A very rewarding stop at Qumran along the way. My expanding Israel gallery (minus Jerusalem) is here:
