Beit Zait reservoir


May 7th. Panoramic view from the eastern shore, showing the level already receding due to the end of the rainy season.  The volume  of water has never been enough for Jerusalem, but it helps replenish the aquifer that might be feeding the Siloan Spring in the City of David.


this is where the reservoir gets the inflow from Sorek



The upper western bank, eroded, exposing layers.Clover and native hops found in the growth.






The view at the dam.
