A rare display of animal friendship was observed at the Hula Valley this week after thousands of pelicans arrived at the Agamon Hula-JNF nature and ornithology park joining dozens of flamingos that have stayed in the area in recent days.

Sharing a local lake, the birds flew and swam around in a breathtaking dance that was even joined by storks.

The Agamon Hula is one of the most important moist habitats in Israel, as it lies along a bird migration route.

It is a vital stopover point for pelicans migrating between Africa and Europe, both because it offers a rich variety of foods to many species and provides a much-needed haven for the birds on the long journey.
