The Fourth International Hula Valley Bird Festival is scheduled for November 16-23, highlighting the magnificent Hula Valley and northern Israel, which feature some of the most incredible birding destinations on Earth. The Hula Valley is at its best in late autumn as tens of thousands of Common Cranes and Pelicans are present as well as over 25 species of birds. In addition, spotters may get the rare and sought after opportunity to view species such as the Greater Spotted and E. Imperial Eagles, Pallid Harrier and more. Local species such as the Black Francolin, Pygmy Cormorant and three species of Kingfishers offer extraordinary viewing and photo opportunities.

Festival participants will enjoy a full birding program that includes tours led by the leading birders and tour guides during day, presentations on birds in the hotel lounge from specialists with intimate knowledge of the area during evening hours.
