"Plum Blossom" is gone, and the "Bird of Myth" is here. Yesterday, in Century Park, "Bird Friends" were surprised to find that a Chinese codonal terroch took a rest on Jingtian Lake. You know, it is the scarce one of the national first -class protection of animals and gulls, and there are only more than 100 in the world. I heard that the news, the "bird friends" who love bird watching came from all parties to appreciate the rare landscape.

"I got up yesterday morning, and the typhoon of 'plum blossom' has basically passed. I immediately think of the typhoon, some birds often like to avoid wind by the seaside and the water. This is the good time to watch bird watching." Lu Yang, who is in his 70s, With many years of experience in bird watching, at more than 8 am, he took a camera to the shore of Jingtian Lake in Century Park. Sure enough, he looked far away. At this time, the lake was not shocked. In the lake, perhaps to stay in a cruise, there are some ropes and stakes. The gulls were leisurely resting on the rope and stakes, and some of them stood on a rope more than a dozen.

At this time, Lu Yang suddenly found a waterbird of a "gull" group. Different from ordinary royal gulls, its hairstyle is very "cool", not flat head, but a bit like "Phoenix head". It is orange, the previous section is black, and the most pointed is the white "dot lip". "Seeing this bird, I can't believe my eyes. Is it the Chinese codonal ternoviring? It is one of the 100 most endangered species in the world, and there are only a hundred in the world!"

Lu Yang aimed the camera lens to the bird, and looked at each detail and characteristics. In the end, it was determined that it was the Chinese codona! He quickly sent this good news in the "Bird Friends Group". Someone immediately responded, and someone drove from Nanhui.

Why do you come from sea?

Why is the Chinese codona ternoviring called the "bird of mythology"? Dr. He Xin, an associate researcher at the Shanghai Natural History Research Center of Shanghai Natural History, told reporters that the original name of the Chinese cousin roots of the black -mouth cousin, the codon of the world, was listed as a critical species on the world bird red list. It was first discovered in 1861. But it has always been very rare. After 1937, it disappeared into the horizons of human beings, so it is called the "bird of mythology". Until 2000, it re -discovered its breeding record in the Mazu Islands, which is the first time that the world has discovered a breeding record. Later, with the efforts of scientific researchers, their population rose. But after all, the overall is still scarce, endangered, and often mixed in ordinary royal and birds. It is not easy to observe. Therefore, the Chinese cracked ternovies have always been the "star" species in the eyes of bird watchmakers and researchers.

The activity area of ​​the Chinese crackered roamer is mainly on the coast and island. Although there have been a "journey of magic capital", it also occasionally appears on the coast of the East China Sea of ​​Nanhui Mouth. Why is it "entering the city" this time? He Xin analyzed that the typhoon came, and the birds were very dangerous under the wind. In order to avoid typhoons, they are often hidden near the eyes of typhoons, and they are transferred to the eyes of the typhoon. The "plum blossoms" traveled to many parts of Shanghai, and they are also estimated to be "entered the city" by typhoons. In addition, the Century Park has a lake, and after the typhoon, it is suitable for them to rest on the water for food.

The reporter learned that the "noble guests" who came to Century Park yesterday were not only the Chinese codona, but also the brown -winged swallow, but also rare. As the name suggests, its wings are brown and the flying posture is very beautiful. "The brown -winged roamer also belongs to the marine ternary, and the chance of seeing in Shanghai is not high." He Xin said that in recent years, with the attention of ecological environmental protection, the design of urban park green space also pays more attention to the integration of human and nature. With the continuous improvement of citizen's scientific literacy and the popularization of natural education, more and more people have joined the group of bird watching enthusiasts, and more and more bird watchmen are paying attention to birds in the city.

At about 1 pm yesterday, the gulls left one after another and returned to the ocean; the birdwatch people still lingered and wandered, reminiscent for a long time ...
