19 Sep Fall Bird Migration: Live from the Field
בַּשָּׁנָה הַבָּאָה נֵשֵׁב עַל הַמִּרְפֶּסֶת וְנִסְפּוֹר צִפּוֹרִים נוֹדְדוֹת
Bashana haba’ah, Neishev al hamirpeset V’nispor tziporim nod’dot
“Next year we will sit on the porch and count migrating birds.”
(A popular Hebrew song)
As we approach the New Year, and pray for a peaceful Shana Haba’ah (next year) the birds are winging their way from their breeding grounds in Europe and the North, headed through Israel on their way south – as they have done for thousands of years.
Join the team from BirdLife Israel, as we broadcast from the field with beautiful views of the spectacle. Meet some of these birds up close and learn how we are working to preserve vital habitat as stopover sites for all these avian visitors.
