Seagulls Flock to the Hun River in Shenyang

Recently, many seagulls have appeared in the Heihe (Xilong) waters along the Shenyang section of the Hun River. Every day, photographers and nearby residents watch and shoot seagulls at the Hun River Olympic Park. Seagulls are concentrated here, with up to hundreds or thousands at its peak.


These seagulls stand on the ice, soar in the air, and dive. They not only have good eyesight but also strong fishing skills. Citizens watching by the shore exclaimed and praised them, and they all took out their mobile phones to record these beautiful moments.


It is known that seagulls migrate every year and rest in the Hun River waters of Shenyang. They usually stay for about 20 days. In the past, seagulls were mainly concentrated in the Hun River Bird Island waters, but this year these seagulls are getting closer to the city center.



In addition to these seagulls in the Hun River, there are also a large number of wild ducks and rare birds. Occasionally, they fly in groups from the sky.








According to Baidu Encyclopedia: Seagulls, seagulls belong to the Gull family, with colors similar to pigeons or small chickens, aggressive and fierce, long legs and long beaks, with webbed feet between their toes, good at swimming, like to fly in groups, and lay eggs in March. Seagulls that live by the sea are called sea gulls, and those that live by lakes or rivers are called river gulls.
