My first ride after my accident. New beak did not affect the aerodynamics.
Fingers not 100% yet on the bars. Thought I was getting headaches too but loosened the new helmet a smidgin and Voila! (How dumb can ya get??)

Went out at dawn, saw the sun rise over the Golan Heights - all reds and golds and pinks.Tons of tiny birds out - too small to be the early birds getting the worms. My bee-eaters have moved on - not a one at the nesting place.
Still quite a lot of caper flowers about, the grapes coming on and the early dates beginning to change from bright green to a kind of reddish brown.
Hot and dry - the predominant shades are golds in the fields and yellows on the hillsides and dusty greens of the date palms and olive trees

2 1/2 hours over the agricultural vehicle tracks.
