Tristram's Grackle - Onycognathus tristramli

This is a black bird, with orange wing patches. It is about 25-30cm long, and named after Canon Tristram, who visited Israel during the middle of the last century. It feeds on fruit, insects and picnickers' leftovers. Tristram's Grackle may be found around Em Gedi, Arad and Dimona in southern Israel. It is a social bird, living in small groups and forming flocks of hundreds in the winter, Its pleasant calls break the stillness of the desert wadis where it nests in rock crevices and caves.

Dzięki Lipniaczku. Jak zawsze jesteś niezawodny.  :)

The invitations to the Focsani Congress sent by David Rintzler, were stamped with a special stamp showing the Jewish date: "Kaf-Gimel Kishlev TRM'B 1881"
In the middle of the stamp, within two concentrical circles, it was written:

Let us rise and go to our Land and our Peace
The Union of Workers of Focsani for the Holy Land

Four interesting motives also appear in the center of the stamp:
A plow – for the ploughing of the land,
A sickle for harvesting,
Residential buildings,
Fruit-bearing trees.
This was how the Focsani Jewish pioneers saw their home in Israel.

Rishon Leziyyon, one of Israel's bustling, noisy cities, grew from a pioneering agricultural colony founded in 1882 by a group of "Hovevei Zion" from Russia who had arrived in the country while it was still under Turkish rule. They took the name Rishon Leziyyon from the book of Isaiah, 41.27 'A harbinger unto Zion will / give. 'Behold, behold them, and to Jerusalem a messenger of good tidings." The first settlers came to a neglected, desolate area of sand dunes reached only by a camel track. They were later joined by more members of "Hovevei Zion" who came to build up the country and strengthen Jewish settlement.

The founders knew nothing of farming or country life, but their determination to live in the land of their forefathers enabled them to overcome all difficulties, and they succeeded in turning a desolate waste into a flourishing settlement. Within a short time the barren sands gave way to green fields and vineyards.

The settlers received help from Baron Benjamin de Rothschild whose first project in Eretz Israel was to dig a well for the village. He followed this with the construction of the wine cellars where the grapes were pressed to produce "Carmel" wine from which the settlers gained a modest livelihood. Bottles of "Carmel" wine are found on the tables of Jews all over the world, not only gladdening their hearts but also symbolising their yearning for Zion.

As time went by, Rishon grew - economic enterprises were established and public institutions opened their doors there. It was Rishon that boasted the first Community Hall in the country as well as the first Jewish kindergarten and the first brass band. Tradition even has it that "Hatikva", the Jewish national anthem, was composed and sung there for the first time.

All around Rishon, new settlements and new factories have arisen and some of Israel's busiest highways serve the area. Yesterday's dream of the pioneers has become today's reality, as the tiny colony Rishon Leziyyon has been converted into one of Israel's important towns.
