Today (November 21) at noon, some netizens reported: In the Nanshan campus of the Chinese Academy of Art, a super beautiful big bird flew in, and it was a bit like a wild pheasant, which was definitely not raised by teachers and students in the school, like some kind of wild protected animal.
The big bird in the video has a red crown on its head, a shiny black "big back", white feathers, patterns on it, and a completely black belly.
Such a special guest suddenly came to the campus, which quickly attracted everyone's onlookers. The place it chose to settle in front of the cafeteria of the Nanshan Campus was a fine arts student who said, "It just happened to be a meal, and this bird must have been attracted by the aroma of the meal." Some people also sent out soul torture, "How did it come in without a health code and a campus card?" ”
The Orange Persimmon Interactive reporter sent a photo of the big bird to "Dongsi", vice chairman of the Zhejiang Wild Bird Association, and he recognized at a glance that it was a white egret, which belongs to the national second-class key protected animal.
Dongsi said that in the past, most of the egrets lived in the mountains, which were rare in urban areas, but as the ecological environment of Hangzhou became better and better, in the past two years, egrets have been breeding in Hangzhou for a long time, especially in autumn and winter, they can often be seen flying down from the mountains to feed. "There are mountains near Hangzhou, and there are egrets in the nearest like Chenghuang Mountain, and they have also flown by the Middle River before."

The fairy fluttering white egret, known as the "fairy in the forest", has been a precious ornamental bird since ancient times, with gorgeous feathers and white bodies, and because of its hoarse voice, it is called "dumb".
The common pattern on the official uniform of the Qing Dynasty is the level of bird, and the white egret is the pattern of the civil official five-grade official imperial uniform supplement.
Because of its high appearance, many literati and inkers favor it.
The poet Li Bai once wrote a poem specifically for it, "Give Huangshan Hugong to Ask for White Egrets": "Please buy Jun Double White Egret with Double Baibi." The white egret is as white as a brocade, and the snow is shameful. In the jade pool, among the brush bristles. The night perches in the cold and the moon is quiet, and the flowers are leisurely in the morning. I want to get this bird and play on Bishan Mountain. Hu Gong can quit the gift, and the cage sends the wild man back."
Xu Wei, a great genius of the Ming Dynasty, also liked white egrets and raised four in his life. When Xu Wei was in his twenties, his second brother Xu Lu died in Guizhou, Xu Wei returned from cooking, bought a white egret when passing through Guangdong, and when he was about to arrive in Jiangxi, the white egret flew away, Xu Wei wrote "White Egret Poem" as a read: "The smoke and rain in southern Fujian are misty and clear, and the parthenogenetic fly into the sky." But I remember that I can't return, and the two oars are deep in the mirror..."
Later, while serving as a staff member for Hu Zongxian, Hu gave him another white egret, and Xu Wei wrote another song "White Egret" in return. Shortly after the death of this white egret, Xu Wei exchanged calligraphy for a white egret and also wrote a poem "White Egret".
The knowledge point science popularization is over, so the question is, what should I do if I encounter an egrett on campus?
Jiang Zhi, deputy director of Hangzhou Zoo, said that the best protection for wild animals is not to disturb or interfere with them, so that they can return to the mountains and forests naturally.
