After having lunch for nearly 3 hours, the time came to 2:30 in the afternoon, and the heavy rain finally stopped.
The haze in the air and the dust on the trees were washed away by the sudden heavy rain.
Li Xiao walked on the wooden corridor that had been washed clean by water and took a deep breath.
The aroma of the earth after the rain, the exceptionally fresh air, and the renewed chirping of birds and insects all around make people feel particularly relaxed and happy.
After leaving the [building within the building], the eight of them walked towards the next migratory bird feeding spot.
There are many species of migratory birds in the wetland, but there are only three main large birds, namely the black-faced crane, the red-legged white-faced crane and the black-necked crane.
These three birds are national third-level protected birds. The number of these birds is very rare in the wild, but there are still a lot of them in many zoos.
After all, in the zoo, the natural enemies of many birds cannot harm them, so there is no need to worry about natural enemies, and there is no need to consider the source of food.
Of course, their breeding speed has been significantly improved, and the expansion of the population has become a matter of course.
There is no fence at this feeding point, and it is surrounded by reeds. Beyond, there are streams and lakes.
A large number of black-necked cranes gathered at this feeding point because the bird food sold at this feeding point is small lake fish, which is one of the favorite foods of these black-necked cranes.
Although, the park has put a large number of fish, shrimp and frogs in lakes, streams, wetlands and swamps as food for these large birds.
Originally, these migratory birds were used to hunting on their own.
However, later they discovered that they could easily obtain food from human hands, so they gradually became lazy and unwilling to work hard to obtain food.
[The author has also encountered such a choice. A kind-hearted aunt asked me if I wanted to eat soft food. However, the author thought about it for a while and felt that it is more practical for people to eat hard food. After all, I have eaten too much soft food.
My teeth are not in good condition. In the future, if there is no soft food, I will not be able to eat hard food.】
When I walked into the feeding point, I heard an introduction about the black-necked crane coming from the radio.
[The black-necked crane is a large wading bird, with a body length of 100-120 cm and a weight of 4-6 kg. 】
[The neck and legs are very long, the whole body is gray-white, the head, front neck and flight feathers are black, the eyeliner and the exposed skin in front of the head are dark red, and the tail feathers are brown-black.]
[Except for a small white or off-white spot behind and under the eyes, the rest of the head and about 2/3 of the upper part of the neck are black, so it is called the black-necked crane]
[Black-necked cranes are omnivorous and feed on plant leaves, rhizomes, thorns, tubers, algae, corn, and sand. They also eat insects, fish, frogs, and crop seeds remaining in farmland, etc.]
Wen Li, who was at the front of the team, quickly brought each of the four groups of couples a small bucket of small lake fish.
There are about a dozen lake fish in a small bucket. The fish are only as wide as your thumb and slightly longer than your middle finger.
There is also a stainless steel iron clip inside the bucket, which can be used to catch fish.
This way you don't have to dirty the precious hands of tourists, which can be said to be very considerate.
Li Xiao helped Jiang Yingxue hold the iron bucket and walked aside.
"I'll go, that girl over there is so pretty, I want her to feed me fish."
"You LSP, let me go, you are so beautiful"
"Where, where, let me see, okay, I'll go rub it in"
"Go together, go together"
I heard several black-necked cranes with bright eyes, walking on bird steps and talking bird songs, approaching quickly.
When Li Xiao heard what these guys said clearly, several blue veins appeared on his forehead.
Good guy, do you want to tease your woman in front of you?
Although it was just a few black-necked cranes, with Li Xiao's petty attitude, how could he let such a thing happen?
He took two steps back and said to the blue budgerigar hidden in his clothes.
"Go, tell those LPS birds for me, if they dare to do anything, I will come over at night and destroy them!",
"Should I go??! I don't dare to go. They are so big. Don't look at them eating fish so happily. They are so fierce that they can even eat birds!"
The blue budgerigar stuck out a blue bird's head from Li Xiao's collar, looking at the approaching black-necked crane, and the bird's head shook wildly.
He didn't want to be the one who stood out. This place was not far from his original area and there was no big commotion. If those guys found out that he was here, he would be finished.
Li Xiao looked at the blue budgerigar that had retracted, and then at the black-necked crane that was approaching Jiang Yingxue step by step.
I couldn't help but curse in my heart, all the birds in the group were not good birds.
One person is greedy for life and afraid of death, and a group of lustful and hungry ghosts will not spare even human beings.
The blue budgerigar was unreliable, so Li Xiao had no choice but to do it on her own.
"Li Xiao, quickly bring me small fish to feed them."
Just in time, Jiang Yingxue turned around to say hello, and Li Xiao quickly carried the bucket and walked over quickly.
Seeing the black-necked cranes standing next to Jiang Yingxue in twos and threes, Li Xiao's face fell.
These birds can't even hide themselves?
Good guys, Jiang Yingxue didn’t hold anything in her hands, you gathered around in a circle, and I was carrying a bucket of fish, and you didn’t even look at it?!
Li Xiao coughed lightly, pretended to look at these black-necked cranes up and down, and said to Jiang Yingxue
“Speaking of which, these black-necked cranes are so big and smooth, I don’t know if they are delicious or not!!”
Jiang Yingxue
black-necked crane
Jiang Yingxue was still very nervous at first, but when she turned around and saw the smile on Li Xiao's face, she quickly knew that he was just joking, but she still reminded her
"Don't talk nonsense. This is a protected animal and cannot be eaten. Besides, it's not good for such a big one. Look at those big and meaty chickens in the market. They are not delicious. The meat must be loose."
Unlike Jiang Yingxue's calmness, the seven or eight black-necked cranes around him started talking one after another.
"Hey, Third Brother, this person actually wants to eat us?"
"No way! No way! There are really people who don't know that we are protected birds, right?!"
"This human seems to have pretty features, but I didn't expect him to be a fool and want to eat us? Are you kidding me?"
Several birds teased each other, but their laughter got stuck in their throats.
Wait, they quickly realized, how could they understand this human being?
How can this person speak bird language!!!
They looked at each other, then turned their long bird necks firmly, looked towards Li Xiao, and saw the intriguing smile on Li Xiao's face.
They all swallowed and listened to Li Xiao continue.
"Hey, be careful and don't let them take advantage of you."
Jiang Yingxue's round little face blushed slightly, and she felt a little funny in her heart. She didn't expect that this guy Li Xiao could be so chauvinistic, even making a few birds jealous.
"What's the point of taking advantage of just a few little birds? What do they know?"
Li Xiao quickly retorted,
"How can a little bird take advantage and not take advantage? If those LSPs look at you one more time, I feel like I'm at a disadvantage."
"Not to mention, these guys are taking action!!!"
Jiang Yingxue's face turned redder and redder, she hummed softly and underestimated
"Stingy, chauvinistic."
But even though he said he was a stingy person, he felt very sweet in his heart, and he unconsciously took two steps back, slightly away from these black-necked cranes that kept rubbing his sensitive parts.
