Grey Hypocolius

Patience and perseverance pay off! After a few unsuccessful attempts, I finally saw and photographed two of the rare Grey Hypocolius family that have taken up residence at Km20 over the last few weeks. Possibly the first breeding record for Israel, these are the two young individuals of the family that finally cooperated with me.
