[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Tristram's Grackle (Onychognathus tristramii) hopping on the reel on top of the northern edge of the Masada fortress. I only wanted it as a part of the view to the nort-east as it suddenly jumped up to change his position. I happened to press the shutter right t the moment to catch it on the frame airborne, but wings still closed.
