Overthinking where to set my traps: trapped maybe 2 birds a month
Putting a trap in a random place because the car couldn't go farther on a bad dirt road: trapped 8 just yesterday 🤯

Tagged two mynas today! Very nice to see them on the map in real time

Trapping mynas has been difficult in the last month. FINALLY got this one today. Now let's just hope the radio tag doesn't fall off, because she was definitely trying to get rid of it!

Some #desert_life from my birthday trip last weekend
1. Dorcas gazelles (צבי הנגב)
Baby Arabian babblers, right before @BabblingKrista ringed them and put them safely back in the nest. Look at these tiny dinosaur hedgehogs!

I didn't plan to have so much Israeli politics here when I first made this profile, but life happened.

היום באמת לא למדתי אבל כן טיילתי במדבר בבוקר (יש פה אנשי צמחים שמזהים מה זה?)

Yesterday I went with friends to see the aftermath of the big flood on Monday. I missed the really dramatic part but it was still beautiful!
