I haven't been to bird watching for a long time, and yesterday evening I passed by the Grand Canal Forest Park in Tongzhou District, and a night heron lightly crossed the sky. Hurry up and park your car in the parking lot at West Gate.
Take the upstream trail and look into the distance, there are still many birds on the canal bank. Egrets, night herons, magpies, swifts...
Night herons spread their wings among the vegetation along the river.
Egrets glide along the river.
The canals are most egrets and night herons. Before, there are many water birds playing on the water. Recently, however, it has not been possible to see the river. The reeds along the river grow very tall, and in many places the height is more than 2 meters, obscuring most of the view. And now the boardwalk is being upgraded and repaired, so you can't walk in.
The current Grand Canal Forest Park is still very recommended, the body temperature is about 3 ° C lower than the city, standing on the edge of the walking trail to watch birds is still very comfortable.
Small partners who are willing to enjoy the natural landscape recommend directly navigating the South Parking Lot of the West 6 Gate of the Grand Canal Forest Park, and then directly drive to the southernmost parking, from the small gate into the park all the way to the south, there are few people and beautiful scenery, and birds are accompanied, very beautiful.
