A Sign That Spring Has Arrived...
A Sign That Spring Has Arrived...
The call of the francolin is one of the clearest signs that spring is here!
This elusive bird is a resident species in Israel, meaning it does not migrate, yet spotting it is no easy task—it is extremely cautious and secretive.
With the arrival of spring, male francolins claim their nesting territories, find an elevated perch, and proudly call out to announce their domain.

Women Who Made History – In Color! 🎥✨
In honor of International Women’s Day, we’re bringing back to life the moments of the pioneering women who led, created, and built this land.
Using AI-powered technology, rare historical photographs from the KKL-JNF Photo Archive have been carefully restored and colorized, breathing new life into the stories of the strong women who were here from the very beginning.
Because of them—their path, resilience, and dedication—we are here today. 💙🌿

But the cranes in Agamon Ahula Lake are already preparing for their spring migration, and you can almost feel the excitement in the air!
Starting in March, the cranes will take flight, soon to be joined by storks, pelicans, and millions of other migrating birds, creating one of nature’s most breathtaking spectacles. 🕊️✨

In light of the decline in the bee population, KKL- NF plants numerous pollen-producing trees and shrubs in its forests and allows beekeepers to set up hives near them.
Among the trees that contribute to the growth of the bee population are jujube, almond, and judas as well as shrubs such as laurestine, sage, and chaste.
Despite the turmoil in the north, the breathtaking migration at Agamon Hula-KKL continues undisturbed.
Take a moment to watch as the majestic cranes gather for the night, a true testament to nature's resilience. 🕊️🌅

Our dedicated firefighters, together with Israel’s Fire and Rescue Services, are working hard to contain and extinguish the flames under extremely challenging conditions.
We are committed to protecting Israel’s forests, local communities, and the unique ecosystem of the Galilee.
