In Quzi Ecological Wetland Park, man and nature coexist in harmony
Miluorong Media News (Reporter Zhang WeiHu Qing) Gray-winged floating gulls soar into the sky, crested ibises (pì tī) dive in the water, red-billed black waterfowl foraging among aquatic plants... In early summer, flocks of migratory birds gather in The Quzi Ecological Wetland Park, and in the extremely loud chirping, they will courtship, nesting, and brooding, completing a cycle of new life.
On the park shoals, a large number of grey-winged floating gulls gather to build their nests
On May 21, it was a small full day. On the wide surface of the Quzi Ecological Wetland Park, flocks of gray-winged floating gulls emit excited loud chirps, either circling densely in the air, or swooping toward the water surface, or gliding along the water with grass stems, or hovering over the shallows in the middle of the water with their wings.
Crested ibises prefer to dive in the water
It is not difficult to find that among the dense water and grass in the shoal, more motionless floating gulls receive grass stems from the air and quietly carry out the great cause of "nest building". In addition to the gray-winged floating gulls, there are several cute crested ibises swimming intently in the water, from time to time with their heads down not in the water, and then do a high-speed diving under the water, and then emerge from the water in the distance, which is very naughty and cute.

"It's grey-winged floating gulls in their breeding season, so they're all fighting for nest materials and nesting." Hubei bird expert Li Zhenwen has been tracking migratory birds for a long time and knows the grey-winged floating gulls very well. He told reporters that until mid-to-late June, it is the breeding season for grey-winged floating gulls, and now it is the nest courtship stage, "It is the rainy season, the water level of natural wetlands has changed too much, and the park has become their stable ideal habitat." They chose to be here, and it makes sense. "
Birds are bustling with competition for nest materials and nest positions
In recent times, many citizens walking and playing in the park have found an unprecedented lively scene, and many people have taken videos and posted them in the circle of friends. However, although the various bird activities are less than 100 meters from the shore, the birds have not been affected by human activities, and still enjoy the "bird life" from morning to night, and man and nature coexist in harmony.
"The ecological environment of the park is very good, and there is no disturbance to the habitat of birds living and breeding. As a wetland park, this is an ecological contribution, but also a contribution to the landscape and culture. Li Weiwen said. It is understood that the crested ibis was included in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species in 2016. It appears in Quzi Ecological Wetland Park, which is inseparable from the park's good ecological environment and the high quality of citizens' love for the environment.
