We saw 2 of these birds in a little park near the amphitheatre in Joffa Nov 15, 2010 but didn't have a clue what they were. Thanks for the answer.

In Israel, this past July, 2010, saw this bird on a road next to the Jordan River, Took several pictures, none this close up and have been wondering what the name was. Now I know. Beautiful pictures & beautiful bird.
