The HOOPOE The National Bird of Israel

Post by rebecca malka »

The Dochifat or Hoopoe often visit our garden and area, with their long beaks, they actually aerate the ground for us. The Hummingbird enjoys a sip of nectar from the Coleus plant flowers.

This is a pair of Hoopoes who seem to enjoy my back yard area. I cught a few pictures and some film from two different angles today.
