For the third consecutive year the International Bird Migration Festival in Eilat, Israel is due to take place end of March. The festival offers possibly the best opportunity to get started with Birdwatching in Israel, one of the birdrichest countries in the world. The organizers from the Israeli Ornithology Center offer an amazing programme with daily excursions to the best places to observe resident birds and bird migration, that is in full swing end of march. I recommend the festival as an ideal chance to learn about the best birding sites and talk to the most experienced birders of the country. I feel honoured to have been invited to give the opening presentation. The full programme can be found here . Further questions? Contact me, I am happy to help.
