Ein Gedi final pics




A couple of pics of some local fauna. These Ibex were almost extinct in this area but through a protection program have rapidly increased in number. They are very much 'at home,' & are amazing to watch running & jumping further up the rocky mountains. Some of the bucks had wicked horns!













A bit of quick relaxation before the next battle!
Not sure why this was located in the botanical garden, but no doubt it was part of the history.
