SHIJIAZHUANG, China, Feb. 3, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — A report from Great Wall New Media:

Several groups of images were captured for the first time, in which female Baer’s Pochards were leading their chicks on the water. Wild birds are an ecological barometer and the growing population of Baer’s Pochards is a vote for the efforts the province has made in improving the lake’s ecology.
