Suddenly, a tawny eagle appears. Fifteen black storks stand in the meadow. And then-glossy ibises materialize. There are about twenty pairs nesting among the reeds here. We spot a coypu swimming, its body sleekly cutting through the water.
Some wild boars show up for the show.
We climb the observation tower. The sun has already begun its descent toward the Naftali Ridge in the west. The Golan is to the east, and to the north, Mount Hermon stands, still uncrowned with snow. The view is spectacular. Lakescapes all around, water buffalo grazing in the meadow.
