Had a pleasant week in Eilat. 166 species, 36 lifers. Some higlights for me were many Rueppel's and Cyprus Warblers, Thick-billed and Horned Larks and Yellow-headed Bunting.

First two parts of trip report in my blog;

Eilat 1st-2nd March - White-tailed Plover, Med Gull, Barbary Falcon etc.

3rd March Yotvata and Eilat - Pied Wagtail, Kittiwake, RIchard's Pipits etc.

Rest of the trip soon in my blog.
 
Good read Makpe, full of great memories. TB Larks are simply one of the best birds ever...and have to be the best of all larks!
Also, your second link in your first post links to the same page as the first ;)

I loved both T-b and Temminck's Larks - such a great birds! We saw a lot more than we excepted but i still started to plan next israeli trip immediately :) Probably next April if not already next autumn.

That's better!
Re the mammal - hard to tell as I can't blow it up anymore, but looks like a jackal to me.
Roni's blog is cool too....wish we'd see Sinai Rosies at Amram's Pillars!
 
Makpe - how do you get yr site and Eilat trip info up in English? Cannot seem to find an icon to click on and would like to read it.....
