First thought off the top of my head, a finch of some sort. Not up on the birds that reside in Israel. Mostly a US guy. Photo #2 is my fav......
Nope - I can't afford gold and i couldn't find a 2 sheckel versoin available that wasn't sold out. I felt lucky to get the one sheckel Bird and the one shekel Red Sea. I can probably track them on ebay but i'm done with that. Ruben
