The courtship dance of the Great Crested Grebe is one of the most beautiful in the world of birds. During the courtship period, when the pair of the grebes are in the water, facing each other, they shake their heads from side to side and then dive to the bottom of the lake to collect weeds, come out of the water and swim towards each other and then this beautiful thing happens.
A male Houbara Bustard in a courtship dance, in which he puffs up his beautiful white breast feathers and starts running far, usually in a prominent place, all in order to find a mate.
A short video of the little grebes, with the highlight for me when the parents feed the chicks. The videos were shot using a floating hide.
In this short video, I invite you to join me for a quiet, intimate moment spent alongside one of the most elegant birds in nature – the Greater Flamingo. Most of the shots filmed from a floating hide in Israel, this isn’t about action or drama – it’s about atmosphere.
A Purple heron in morning activity, including catching fish for breakfast. I spent quite a bit of time with these beautiful herons as I photographed them from my floating hide, as close and intimate as possible. The purple heron is a spectacularly beautiful waterfowl, known for his crimson-purple feathers and elegant length.
Little Terns during courtship and mating. I got to spend quite a few days together with this special bird and watch as close as possible their courtship and mating ceremony. The male takes care of bringing the female a small fish, if she agrees to mate with the male she will get the fish. After mating, the male makes sure to bring more and more fish to the female, to show his ability to take care of the chicks that will come to get food.
Short video of male Black Francolin in a breeding season calling in order to find a female. During this time of the year, the males standing on a rock, small hill or something, and make very loud call in order to find a females. The call can be heard from a distance.
Some of the desert birds I photographed in an amazing place - Celia's drinking pool - Ezuz, Israel. Celia and her husband Dror set up a small pool of water near their home in Ezuz and built a hide for photographers nearby. The small pool of water attracts a wide variety of desert birds (and many others animals), and it is one of the best places to observe and photograph the different types of Sandgrouse.

Most of you, when you think of safari in Tanzania (or in Africa in general) you think about the predators and mammals, many of you don't think about the wide variety of birds that can be seen in Tanzania. In this video you will see a variety of species that I watch and photographed in Tanzania (just a small part of what exists there), about 50 species of birds.
Safari in Tanzania - the third and last part that briefly shows what a safari trip in Tanzania looks like and has a bit of everything - lions, elephants, giraffes, birds and more from the amazing variety of animals that Tanzania has to offer..!
