Dates anyone?

It is the Succoth Holiday when we eat out of doors. It is a celebration of Thanksgiving, while we partake our meals out of doors, my birds reap the abundance of the season. Living in Israel, I am fortunate to have all the fresh fruits all year round. Here are some photos taken today of the branch of Yellow dates my husband put in the aviary for the birds to enjoy. There are different varieties of dates which grow in Israel.

I'm jealous! I love fresh dates but we find them in stores few and far between.

Wow, they look great! I wish there was anything here that grew like that, it would be so fun for the birds.

I have gotta give some to mine! Ramadan just ended and we have left over dates- never thought to give them to Tawheed!

Kathy just wash them with water, usually store bought have something sprayed on them. My favourite date byproduct is "SILAN" I use it instead of honey and in baking as well. Did you celebrate Ider Fiter in a grand way, here it is with fireworks etc.? I hope so. here are a few more pictures for ya'all

They must have had one big blast with that for sure. I would love to do that with my birds.
