Migratory birds wintering in Zhanjiang Bay, warm winter wetlands become a "natural granary"

As the cold wave rises, large numbers of migratory birds cross thousands of mountains and rivers, arriving one after another in Zhanjiang Bay to winter. The tidal flats in Zhanjiang Bay are vast and rich in benthic organisms such as fish, shrimp, crabs, and shellfish. Surrounding rice fields and mangrove wetlands also provide plant seeds, creating a "natural granary" for migratory birds with different dietary habits. This area hosts a rich variety of migratory birds, including geese, ducks, plovers, and sandpipers, which sometimes circle low in the sky and sometimes land gracefully, performing a magnificent "aerial ballet." In recent years, Zhanjiang has continuously promoted bay ecological restoration, steadily increasing the mangrove area, designating migratory bird protection zones, and strengthening patrol and control, creating a good habitat for migratory birds. Visitors to Zhanjiang can not only enjoy the spectacular sight of migratory birds flying together and feel the vitality of nature but also enjoy a pleasant time in the warm winter. Come to Zhanjiang to witness this beautiful scene of harmonious coexistence between migratory birds and ecology, and create unforgettable memories!
