The restlessness of the elephant herd made Yang Shubao spend a lot of energy, and after calming the lion and hyena herd, he didn't want to bother anymore, so he drove around the grassland at will.

As the car drove along the wetland, he was greeted by the increasingly noisy ecological world of wetlands.

The wetland provides drinking water for a large number of animals, so there are many animals living around, and the wildebeest herds will migrate here every day to drink, which is a spectacular scene at that time, which is also a scenic part of the reserve.

This is the wildebeest herd did not come, but there are still many animals in the wetland, dozens of hippos from the Great St. Lucia Park came to the reserve, there are crocodiles around them, these crocodiles are not big, they are crocodile eggs hatched from the crocodile eggs brought back by Yang Shubao before.

The crocodiles floated motionless on the surface of the water, like dead logs.

Yang Shubao got out of the car and picked up a rock and threw it at a crocodile, which was frightened into the water, and then it floated again, only to float next to a small hippopotamus.

The little hippopotamus was startled, and quickly wandered to the mother's side, the mother hippopotamus let out the roar of the lion in the east of the river, it thought that the crocodile was coming to attack its own baby, so it opened its mouth and swam towards the crocodile violently.

The crocodile was so frightened that it quickly dived underwater, and after burrowing into the water, it never showed its head again.

Large flocks of birds then descend and they are able to live peacefully with hippos, and some starlings can land on hippos and peck at parasites in the folds of their skin.

There was a wave of European tourists swaying on camels, and the tour guide who walked in front was familiar with Yang Shubao, and after the two took a photo, he took the initiative to ask: "Hey, Mr. Yang, what are you doing here?"

Yang Shubao said: "Look at the birds." ”

The tour guide said, "It's a really good place to watch birds, and there are always some big birds......"

Listening to their conversation, the tourists behind laughed maliciously.

The female tourist was still more reserved, and one girl pointed to the water and said, "What kind of birds are they? They seem to be drowning." ”

There were a lot of birds' buttocks floating on the water, and the legs of these birds were stretched straight and swaying vigorously, as if they were drowning.

The tour guide smiled: "They don't drown, have you ever seen the underwater swan dance? If you haven't seen it, then I have to congratulate you, now you have seen the most primitive swan dance, that is, some white swans, they are looking for food." ”

As he introduced, large white birds continued to rise up, raising their heads out of the water, often holding a small fish in their mouths or hanging some aquatic plants.

Yang Shubao helped to introduce: "Yes, this is a whooper swan, they mainly feed on aquatic plants, of course, if there are small fish sent to the door, they will not refuse." ”

The vast wetland world is home to many waterbirds, including whooper swans, cormorants, and boobies in this area near the water.

Boobies come from the sea, they are expert pilots, and they fly to the sea every day to spend the night on the islands and reefs.

This is a very intelligent bird, the wetlands at night are very dangerous, there are crocodiles underwater, hyenas and wild dogs at the water's edge, and the reefs in the sea are not only not natural enemies, but they are natural enemies:

At low tide at night, there are always some small fish, shrimp and shellfish around the reef that have not had time to retreat.

Cormorants and boobies swim fast, and they are not afraid of crocodiles during the day, unless the crocodiles attack from underwater, these waterfowl will flee quickly if they are approaching from the surface.

Boobies, in particular, sometimes perform the stunt of floating on the water with iron palms.

Seeing that there were more people, the whooper swans left the water's edge in flocks, and they went to the water with slightly deeper water, anyway, they have long necks, and they can get aquatic plants at a deeper level.

A flock of mallards saw them leave this beautiful place with abundant aquatic plants and immediately ran to occupy the territory, and these waterfowl will also peck at the aquatic plants, similar to whooper swans, and also plunge down to expose their buttocks and soles of their feet and shake on the surface of the water.

But the whooper swans do this with more grace, diving into the water and pecking at the aquatic plants as if they were dancing.

Mallard ducks are too fat, all of them have fat butts, and when they pout and shake their buttocks, they slap the pig's butts with the butchers to show off the quality of their fat.

Two black-backed jackals stood on the surface of the water and watched the fat birds, motionless, pretending to carve.

Some fat birds are stupid birds that will literally think the black-backed jackal is a statue and swim around in search of food.

At this time, the black-backed jackal will teach them a lesson, and the black-backed jackal will be shaped like a poisonous snake when it attacks, and if it doesn't move, it will be enough, and if it moves, it will be a meteor and lightning!

The monster truck circled along the wetland, and Yang Shubao could see water birds flying from time to time.

If he found a common bird such as a mallard duck flying out, he would get out of the car and look for it in the grass by the water, and he would always find a nest with eggs inside.

If he doesn't pick up these eggs, he will be eaten by jackals, wild dogs and black-backed jackals, so Lao Yang got some wild bird eggs without any psychological pressure, mainly mallard ducks and wild pigeons.

Drive slowly and leisurely, pick up a bird's egg from time to time, and if Lao Yang is willing to move, he can also pull some wild vegetables.

The grasslands in the rainy season are abundant and tender with wild vegetables.

In the evening, he drove to the town to have a beer and dinner with Zhang Jinjie and Maison.

He handed the eggs to Maison, who asked, "Roasted and eaten?"

Uncle Yang served: "You are a chef, can you stop baking things all the time, come to some delicacies that can show your level!"

"That's a super-standard roasted bird's egg?"

Yang Shubao took a bottle of cold beer and went to sit under the tree to drink, he waited for a while and didn't wait for Zhang Jinjie, so he carried the bottle and went over to look.

The town is really much more prosperous than last year, and the popularity is already very strong, and he walked to the door of Zhang Jinjie's company only to see people surrounding Zhang Jinjie.

After seeing him, Zhang Jinjie beckoned: "Lao Yang, come and introduce you to a few compatriots, these gentlemen are interested in settling in our town." ”

Yang Shubao walked over and looked familiar, these were all previous tourists, but he forgot what it was called, after all, Zhang Jinjie brought too many tourists.

A total of four middle-aged men were chatting with Zhang Jinjie, and they were very happy to see Yang Shubao, and took the initiative to introduce themselves.

Among the four middle-aged men, one pair is brothers, named Zhang Ju and Zhang Yang, and two men are named Li Chaoyang and Zhao Jiangang.

Yang Shubao shook hands with them and asked in surprise, "You want to come to the town to settle down?"

Among the four people, Zhang Ju was the leader, and he smiled: "That's the case, all four of us can be regarded as financially free......

"Oh, Lao Zhang, don't exaggerate too much, what kind of financial freedom, we just don't have to go to work. The eldest Li Chaoyang corrected.

Zhang Ju said: "To make a long story short, anyway, we don't have to run around for a living, and then we retired early, and we have always wanted to find a place to settle down, to Italy, Canada, New Zealand and the Maldives, but we have been to a lot of places, but compared to the resort town, I think those places are a bit problematic, we came back this time to try to live in the town for a while." ”
