<p>The great white pelican (Pelecanus onocrotalus), also known as the eastern white pelican (in contrast to the western pelican of the Americas), rosy pelican or simply white pelican, is a bird in the pelican family. It breeds from southeastern Europe through Asia and Africa, in swamps and shallow lakes Wikipedia). They migrate in large number through Israel in the fall. Historically, large swamps provided critical rest and nutrition to the migrating birds but most swamps were drained  after 1948. The birds found an alternative sources of fish in the region's aquaculture, to the chagrin of farmers and conservationists. A solution was found when a coalition of government agencies, conservation activists and fisheries created artificial reservoirs into which the farmers transport their wild spawn (the offspring of the fish raised for market, which are not yet at market size and compete for food with the commercial crop). Migrating pelicans rapidly learned to arrive at the Viker reservoir, followed by birders. more here: <a href="https://haipo.co.il/en/item/650295" rel="noreferrer nofollow">haipo.co.il/en/item/650295</a></p>

Today there was a planned Bike Boycott against local Jewish owned establishments. Their goal was to ride their bikes to 6 different businesses.<br />
<br />
The counter protesters rallied in support of these establishments, with lines around the blocks for hours.<br />
<br />
I was there to document.</p>

<p>one of the pleasant surprises was the return of greater flamingos to the salt ponds in the north of Israel, where the brine shrimp (genus Artemia) serves as the main attraction. I am told that the Grater flamingo has been a winter visitor for some years now.</p>
