91. Keep bees
When the gunshot rang out, Chen Song was very worried that Brother Dao would be scared to, but after enlightening his wisdom, Brother Dao's ability to bear increased greatly, and after hearing the gunshot, he closed his ears and looked at it, and found that it was not a gun to hit it, so he went to chase the mouse again.
The volunteers were divided into three groups, one with a gun to turn the mouse into a dead mouse, one to pick up the dead mouse, and one to assemble the model of the gull bird that they had brought up.
Chen Song was on the first road, he didn't have a gun but had a bow and arrow, and his bow hunting level was excellent, as long as the mouse dared to stop within ten meters, it would immediately nail it into the ground with an arrow.
After half an hour of busy work, there were still rats drilling out, Chen Song wiped his sweat and said: "It's unbelievable, how many rats are there on this island?"
"Countless, man. Corey beckoned to him, "Let's come over and have a drink and rest first." ”
Goodson pinched his throat in a funny voice and said, "The drink used on this island trip was kindly provided by Mr. Corey Marcos, the owner of Ice Crown Cold Drink Bar, and let us thank him with applause." ”
Corey pretended to stand up and salute around, and then deliberately teased his brother: "Hey, boy, learn to salute with me, let me teach you ......"
Brother Dao tilted his head, and the hind paws stood up, one paw drooped on his chest, and the other paw was placed next to his head and dangled, which was very Corey's salute.
The appearance of this scene became a silencer, and the group in the laughter was stunned.
Chen Song explained quietly: "Brother Dao is very smart, I taught it to salute at home." ”
"What else have you taught it?" asked Goodsson with interest.
Chen Song said: "I also taught it how to pee in the right way, do you want it to perform?"
Goodsong laughed: "No, no. ”
Chen Song whistled and led Brother Dao to a reef on the edge of the island, where the waves of the North Atlantic Ocean crashed on the black sand of the island, splashing patches of snow-white waves.
Footsteps rang out behind him, and Angelina walked over and handed him a cup of iced coffee.
Chen Song couldn't understand why Icelanders were so keen on cold drinks, and didn't understand why they could only maintain their health by drinking more hot drinks? He decided that if he had the opportunity to return to China in the future, he must get more wolfberries to bring with them.
The old Chinese medicine doctor said well, eat rice with bran, eat vegetables with help. Men do not leave leeks, and women do not leave lotus roots. Hot water wolfberry, the old gun is invincible.
Angelina sat down beside him, her long legs curled up in a vibrant charm, and she pointed to a few white birds hovering in the air and said, "They are the Arctic Tern, the famous flyer." ”
Chen Song quietly pushed away Brother Dao who was drilling between the two, and said cooperatively: "How can they fly?"
"You know, in the summer, the Arctic terns breed in the Arctic and then travel all the way to the South Pole for the winter, which is 20,000 kilometres in a straight line," Angelina said. ”
Chen Song exclaimed: "It's really able to fly." ”
Angelina smiled and said: "Not only that, the straight-line distance between the North and South Poles is 20,000 kilometers, and the Arctic Tern has to constantly adjust its flight position according to the direction of the ocean wind during flight, rather than flying in a straight line, so it is about seven to 90,000 kilometers for them to make a round trip every year!"
The two chatted casually, and the female police officer introduced him to some information about the Arctic tern, such as the fact that this bird is very alive, usually living for 20 to 30 years.
Chen Song continued to marvel, and continued to push out Brother Dao, who was trying to get between the two: Get out of here!
This little rabbit cub really didn't have any eyesight, he glared at Brother Dao angrily: Get away!
Brother Dao misunderstood what he meant, and changed it to drill into his arms, drilling very hard.
After killing the rats, they began to set up gull models on the island, and there were about 400 models in total, including many species of birds, the most common being terns.
In addition, Gudsson and Corey have teamed up to install two PA systems on the island, which are powered by solar panels that intermittently broadcast the calls of breeding terns to attract passing birds to settle on the island.
The gull bird model is very realistic, some gather their wings and lie on the ground, some stand on a high place and spread their wings in a posture of spreading their wings, and some pose affectionately for mating.
At first, Brother Dao thought that this was a real bird, and that dogs had a hunting nature for birds, so Brother Dao took out a gesture that was even more enthusiastic than catching a mouse before to pounce on a tern.
Seeing this, Chen Song shouted: "Brother Dao, don't mess around, put it down!"
Brother Dao didn't listen to him, and ran around the island with four big paws and a model in his mouth, shaking the dog's head as he ran, looking like he still wanted to show off.
Chen Song roared it several times to no avail, and when he saw this, he pulled out the compound bow and flew out with an arrow.
The sharp arrow shot not far in front of Brother Dao, so frightened that Brother Dao braked suddenly, and quickly threw away the bird model honestly and sat on the ground licking his paws.
In the middle of the afternoon, when the boat returned to the dock to prepare for separation, Corey asked him again, "Would you like to go to my ice bar for a drink?"
Chen Song waved his hand and said: "I'll go again when I have time, man, it's free today, I have to send Alice home to rest, she just came on a long-haul flight yesterday, and she must be very tired today." ”
Corey shrugged and said, "Okay, so can I ask you for a favor?" I'm going to go to Midals Icefield in two days to get some good ice, but I lack help, how about you do me a favor?"
Chen Song hadn't been to the ice field yet, and when he heard Kerui's invitation, he nodded and said, "No problem, when the time comes, you give me a letter, and I will definitely go." ”
After they separated, they drove back to the manor, Chen Song wanted Luo Bingxin to rest, but the fat girl rolled up her sleeves and said, "I'm not tired, it's okay, you can arrange work for me." ”
Luo Bingxin's attitude made Chen Song very satisfied, Jing Wei really didn't cheat him, and the WWOOFer introduced was very competent.
The manual pollination work was almost completed, so Chen Song gave Luo Bingxin some plastic ropes and asked her to straighten the crooked fruit and vegetable plants to prevent them from growing to the ground.
Seeing them coming, Goble, who had been busy in the greenhouse, stood up and said, "Hey, Vince, I have a question in mind. Artificial pollination is a big problem, but wouldn't it be a good idea to have a few boxes of bees in the greenhouse and have the bees pollinate while we have honey to eat?"
Not to mention, Chen Song thought that this trick was really useful, so he nodded and said, "It's a good idea, we can raise some bees." ”
"Yes, then there will be honey to eat in the future!" said Goble with a smile.
Chen Song said: "I'll contact a friend tonight to ask where I can buy bees, and buy a nest as soon as possible." ”
Goble waved his hand and said, "Do you still need to buy bees in Iceland? If the weather is good tomorrow, I will take you to trap bees!"
