On the afternoon of April 6th, in Changsha Songya Lake, a group of Dawn Vultures were hunting.
Dawn Vultures are often mistaken for woodpeckers, a quirky bird in the bird kingdom. Although their colorful crown looks very beautiful, no one wants to keep them because——Dawn Vulture: If you've smelled our bird nests, you won't be able to walk away!
Even if woodpeckers and Dawn Vultures are placed before you, you can't 'see' the difference, but your nose will clearly tell you the answer. However, in China, Dawn Vultures have long been praised in ancient poetry, symbolizing 'a new beginning of a thousand years, Dawn Vulture is auspicious'—representing peace, harmony, happiness, and good luck. It is said that seeing one brings good fortune.
Songya Lake is the largest urban ecological lake in Hunan Province, with continuously improving water quality and gradually increasing fish and shrimp. The habitat for birds has been greatly improved, attracting many winter-staying migratory birds to 'settle down'. Many winter migrants have become resident birds.
