For reasons of profitability, the kibbutz stopped fish farming. However, the ponds were left unattended and posed an environmental threat. Not wanting to convert agricultural land for development and prevent multi-storey buildings in the pastoral line, the kibbutz transferred the land to the national land fund, which decided to arrange a stop for migratory birds.
Agmon Hefer is a small closed lake ecosystem in the centre of the country. Migratory birds stop here. At the specially arranged points along the park paths, you can watch and hear the noise of pelicans, the chirping of cranes, and even the high flights of storks. The best time to see the wonders of nature is dawn.
