Recently, after the warty-nosed white swan family of seven "settled" in the Swan Lake of Kokdala of the Fourth Division of the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps, a group of black swans from afar were also deeply attracted by the rich wetlands and beautiful environment here and joined the swan "big family". They are surrounded by ink, elegant posture, always roaming in groups of three or five on the lake soaked by hot springs, or leisurely foraging, or dancing, sweet than heart, by tourists who come to watch and photograph called "black elves".

In the photographer's lens, the black swans merge with the reeds around Swan Lake, the snow-capped mountains and jungles in the distance, and the blue sky, presenting a dreamlike picture of winter scenery.
The black swan photographs in this article were all taken by Lu Jianmin, a local photographer of the Fourth Division of the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps
