Therefore, it is extremely rare. One of the 30 most endangered birds in the world.

How was Hainan 的 discovered? Zhang Weimin, a senior engineer of the Wild Baoke Section of Forestry Bureau of Qiandan Prefecture, introduced that in May this year, in the field survey of bird monitoring projects implemented by the Forestry Bureau of Guizhou Province, after a long time of squatting and careful observation, a simple bird nest was monitored in the suburbs of Hungheng County. Two Hainan Birds and 3 Young Birds are listed as a new distribution of Guizhou.

"In order not to disturb its normal activities, we did not take measures to observe at a close distance, and did not post any news to the society during the period. Until mid -June, we observed that the young birds grew normally and had flew away." The nest to the chicks flying out, the entire breeding period is about 4 months.
