I was just thinking on my ride today about the wildlife thread and here you all are...cyber-telepathy
I saw a group of 6 pied kingfishers this morning, "my" gorgeous summer resident bee-eaters at their bank-nesting-place, 2 big lizards (well not monitors but about 25 cm = 10 inches), and one giant cormorant on the riverbank drying its wings
I also saw a small flock of sheep (in the distance on the Jordanian side of the Border). More accurately, I heard their bells - the sound of which carries so clearly in the still morning air - and then I saw them.
