Photography enthusiasts took the first photographed the cousin 鸊鷉 鸊鷉

Recently, photography enthusiasts in our city for the first time in the Baisha River in our district to shoot a video of the national second -level key protection of wildlife crackered (sound and "ladder"), showing a picture of a harmonious coexistence of people and nature.

At seven in the morning, in the Baisha River section near Zhaocun, Liuting Street, several photography enthusiasts were raising a long gun and short guns to shoot the water birds in the river.

Following the photographer's shot reporter, the two big birds were leading five birds to play in the river. From time to time, the big bird sneaked into the water to catch small fish and feed the birds. This kind of bird is called a cousin.

I have been here twenty or thirty times in Baishahe, but this kind of bird is still photographed for the first time. This bird is called a cousin, and the two old birds carry five birds. It is relatively rare and the appearance is more beautiful.

Cross -headed poultry is a kind of bird swimming, the neck is long, and the two clusters of crown feathers standing on top of the head are particularly high -profile and conspicuous, and it is also the largest in the middle of the body. Adult individuals are more than 50 cm in length, and during the reproduction, they mainly inhabits open plains, lakes, rivers, ponds, reservoirs and swamps.

The environment is getting better and better, and everyone's awareness of animal protection has also been stronger, so birds gradually increase, and the types of types are constantly increasing.

In the past few days, rainwater has increased, and the reeds and water plants in the Baisha River grow lush. This provides good habitats for birds that are breeding. At the same time, a large number of algae and fish and shrimp also provide rich food for birds. Egret sometimes flys at low altitude, sometimes foraging in the water and combing feathers. The little Meng Duck who was just born shortly was swimming in the river under the leadership of the duck mother. The summer white sand rivers suddenly became the parenting paradise of waterbirds.

After the environment is good, there are many varieties of rare birds. In about three or four years, they can increase more than a dozen varieties. These birds used to be relatively rare in Qingdao.
