In a small attempt to fight against israels pathetic efforts in erasing and defiling palestinian culture and heritage, in this post i'll be sharing one of my favourite icons of palestinian identity; the Palestinian sunbird!

This small yet vibrant bird is not just a symbol of the Palestinian natural heritage; it’s a beacon of perseverance and adaptability in a region shaped by complex histories and landscapes.

Despite its small size, the Palestine Sunbird is a powerful symbol of Palestinian identity and resilience, echoing the endurance of the Palestinian people in their homeland.
