The clouds harvest summer color The sound of wood leaves moving in autumn
"Beautiful High Ridge" Saihan Dam autumn color is thick
Walk through the Seven Star Lake in the morning light
It's like stepping into a wonderland
Dreamlike
Seven Stars Lying Quietly Suspected of falling into the human world by the Big Dipper
Qixing Lake Wetland Reserve is located about 2.5 kilometers northwest of the Saihanba Mechanical Forest Farm, within a wetland area of 1 million square meters surrounded by mountains, there are seven natural lakes of different sizes and shapes, overlooking the Big Dipper in the sky, hence the name of Qixing Lake.
At the beginning of the night, the Big Dipper in the sky, the seven stars on the ground, looking at each other from afar, what kind of beautiful mood is it?
Seven Star Lake was originally called "Fire Bubble". According to legend, in 1690 AD, the Mongol noble leader Ge Erdan rebelled, and the Kangxi Emperor personally marched and confronted the rebels in the area of the Ulan Butong steppe. In order to reverse the defeat, Geldan sent troops to burn the Qing army's grain and grass camp, and in an instant the fire burned fiercely, and although the Qing army struggled to save it, it was useless, and suddenly lightning flashed and thundered, and a pouring rain poured out the fire. The rain formed dozens of blisters, and the Kangxi Emperor was overjoyed: "This is the heavens to help me qingye", so he decreed that it was "fire bubbles".
Of course, this is just a legend, do you know the real reason for the formation of the Seven Star Lake Wetland?
mountain climate
Saihan Dam belongs to the alpine, semi-humid mountain climate, precipitation is concentrated in summer and autumn, and by late October, the temperature drops, so that a large amount of water is too late to be removed, frozen in the surface or soil layer, and when it thaws in the spring of the following year, it causes water to accumulate in low-lying areas on the surface.
Hill forest
The forest coverage rate of the surrounding hills is as high as more than 80%, which has a strong water conservation function and increases the effective precipitation.
Sandy hills
Surrounded by sandy hills and semi-enclosed depressions in the middle, precipitation passes through the sand layer to continuously replenish the wetland, coupled with the continuous accumulation of sediment and aquatic plant remnants carried by the water flow, forming the wetland landscape we see now.
Species are diverse, and all kinds of frost days compete for freedom
Qixing Lake Wetland Reserve is an important water resource conservation area of Saihanba National Forest Park, with very rich plant communities, including aquatic plant communities, swamp plant communities, meadow plant communities, as well as forest plant communities and grassland plant communities, with a complete aquatic ecological sequence, set of forests, grasslands, meadows, swamps and water bodies as one, with more than 100 kinds of plants, belonging to more than 40 families and more than 80 genera.
Important ornamental plants such as false ratwort, pingpeng grass, wattle, nightcap, golden lotus, wolf poison flower and so on are widely distributed. According to the data, the pseudo-ratwort wetland is commonly found at an altitude of 3000 meters, which is rare in the area of 1500 meters above sea level, which is of great scientific research and ornamental value. The Qixing Lake Wetland Reserve is one of the typical representatives.
The animal resources of Qixing Lake Wetland are also very rich, according to statistics, there are 47 species of wild animals in the wetland, including 39 species of birds, most of which are traveling birds; 7 species of mammals; 1 species of fish. Among them, there are 4 species of wild animals protected by the state, including black storks, golden eagles, bald cranes and great bustards. Biodiversity is so abundant that it is rare in wetlands in the surrounding area.
