Lizard Man's Travels

This site is a journal of my travels and other adventures while I shift from doing postdoctoral research on tree frog ecology in Darwin, Australia, to research on digestive physiology of lizards and bats in Sede Boqer, Israel. Enough friends have been asking me for regular updates on this journey, that I thought this would be the best forum to keeep everyone up to date (including me).

Tzadok with raptors


Tzadok with raptors
Originally uploaded by wandering lizard.
Tzadok, the man who makes things happen at the ringing station in Eilat, with the result of the morning's raptor run with me and Michal. We caught 9 Levant's sparrowhawks, and 3 buzzards. The day before this, we saw a truly awesome sight of something like 15,000 Levant's sparrowhawks migrating. They literally covered the entire view of the Jordan mountains. Absolutely amazing.
