"Wow, what kind of fairy love is this!"

Tang Xiaoxin couldn't help but look forward to it, if she could find a person with the same interests in the future, talk about a love without breaking up, and grow old together, what a beautiful thing it would be.

However, in today's society, it feels like such an idea is a bit unrealistic, and so many people divorce every day because of trivial things.

Why does it seem to come naturally to gibbons from the beginning?

What an amazing animal.

He beckoned, "Eh Coco, take a picture for me!" ”

Standing next to the wood carving of the pair of gibbons, he made a heart-shaped, and then took a picture of Qian Keke.

After visiting the gibbons, Qian Keke proposed with great interest: "Do we want to go to the wolf hall to have a look?" At this time, you might be able to hear their early morning chorus! I haven't been there for a long time, and I don't know what the baby wolves look like. ”

Tang Xiaoxin looked at the sign at the intersection and said, "Behind this is Hexuan!" Let's go see the red-crowned crane first! ”

A while ago, the red-crowned crane in the Linhai Zoo flew to the Tiger Pavilion and was photographed by tourists.

The fairy-like red-crowned crane played with the white crane's wings, fought with two mighty tigers, and even chased the tiger, such an interesting video quickly spread on the Internet, and Tang's mother showed Tang Xiaoxin.

She is still quite curious about the red-crowned crane who knows martial arts.

Qian Keke said: "But the black charcoal they usually sing together in the early morning, and they can't be seen if they go late, let's go and see them first, and then it's not too late to turn back!" ”

Tang Xiaoxin was a little entangled: "But it's so troublesome to run over and back like this!" ”

Well, when there are few animals in the zoo, you don't have to think about anything, you can just visit it in one trip.

There are a lot of animals, and you have to think about the route to visit, which can be considered a happy annoyance.

At present, the large sign at the entrance of the Linhai Zoo indicates the approximate time required to visit each theme exhibition area, and also recommends several sets of visiting routes.

For example, the panda pavilion + predator promenade (lions, tigers) + large animal area (elephants, giraffes, hippos), if you only come once a year, of course, to see these most popular star animals.

If children like furry and cute animals, you can visit the Big and Small Panda Pavilion + Polyculture Area (foxes, sika deer) + plateau area (marmots, rabbits), small pastures (alpacas, rabbits, ducks), and the animals in the small ranch can also be fed.

If you like birds, of course, it is the Rainforest Aviary + Crane Pavilion + Waterfowl Lake + Flamingo Lake.

Of course, you can visit multiple times over several days, or even book a room at a hot spring inn, wake up every morning to the pleasant sounds of insects and birds, take a leisurely walk in the zoo, visit the animals, enjoy the food, and come back in the evening to soak in the hot spring to relieve stress.

Qian Coco is full of energy and is not afraid of being tired at all.

The two Loli discussed it, and finally decided to visit Hexuan first!

An antique cloister zigzags inward, with green grass and verdant trees along the way.

The murmuring of the clear stream and the moss-covered cobblestones make the atmosphere feel peaceful and tranquil.

Occasionally, you can see a squirrel with a fluffy tail deftly climbing up a tree, clinging to a branch and disappearing, and a red-billed blue magpie with a blue feather and a beautiful red beak, jumping up and down in groups of three or five on the treetops, flying around.

All of them are wild, attracted by the natural and beautiful environment of the zoo, and settled down unceremoniously. Of course, Fang Ye couldn't have been more welcoming.

Turn a corner, and a lawn appears in front of you, and behind the lawn is a shoal!

Two white birds with red cheeks were pacing the shallows, their long red legs and their heads bowed, as if searching for food.

Although their beaks are pointed and long, similar to those of red-crowned cranes, they are slightly curved and not so straight.

The feathers on the back are a pale leaden gray and look a little dirty, and the back of the head is a ribbon-like crest of feathers, like a twisted braid scattered at the back of the head.

Aware that they were a little alert, they looked up and forgot to glance, but there was still some distance, so they lowered their heads again to forage for food.

Tang Xiaoxin was curious: "What kind of bird is this?" ”

looked at the display board next to him, and was shocked: "It's actually a crested ibis!?" ”

In her impression, the crested ibis should be covered with pale red feathers, a very beautiful and beautiful bird, which looks more like a flamingo!

Could it be that I have a mistake in my impression?

No, the crested ibis, the crested ibis, the crested ibis is red, it should be a red bird! Why do you look so plain?

Qian Keke also exclaimed: "Ah, is it really a crested ibis?" ”

Tang Xiaoxin pointed to a sign with different feathers of crested ibises and said, "There seems to be an introduction here!" ”

Read the plaque carefully, which explains the mystery of the color of the crested ibis' feathers!

It turns out that many birds will change their feather colors to attract the attention of the opposite sex during the breeding season.

For example, the mandarin ducks and mallards in the waterfowl lake!

The female mandarin duck looked gray, and the male mandarin duck was dressed in colorful feathers, looking like a striking firework in the water.

But in the summer, the male mandarin ducks in the zoo seem to have disappeared mysteriously, leaving only the ordinary female mandarin ducks.

In fact, it was the male mandarin duck that lost his breeding feathers and changed into a plain gray women's dress, transforming from a "male god over flowers" into a "Cinderella" in an instant.

The same is true for mallards, males are characterized by a dazzling green color on the top of their heads, which disappears in summer, and looks no different from females.

Ducks and ducks usually change their breeding feathers around January, and they start to hunt for breeding in the wintering grounds, and in June and July, they will lose their beautiful breeding feathers.

For crested ibis, black is the color they think is beautiful!

The crested ibis has a ring-shaped area around its neck, and during the mating season from March to June, it secretes a black substance.

While bathing in the water, the black substance is rubbed repeatedly on the neck and back by relying on the neck to achieve the effect of coloring.

The color of the feathers is pure black when it is painted, and it will gradually turn gray-black when it dries!

After moulting in July and August, the feathers will turn white again, as pure and flawless as snow.

And red is actually the color under their wings.

Tang Xiaoxin suddenly said: "I see! ”

Turning his attention back to the crested ibis in the exhibition area, I just saw a crested ibis sticking its head down, its sharp beak stuck into the mud, moving around.

It seems that he found the prey, but he didn't catch it, and his head was raised and he shook the feathers on his body, and another peck, bringing up a splash.

This time it worked!

A loach is firmly pinched from the middle by the crested ibis's sharp beak, curls its body and slaps violently, sometimes wrapping around the long beak of the crested ibis like a snake, and the crested ibis shakes its head from side to side.

Probably too slippery, it was thrown out of its mouth and jumped around on the grass, and the crested ibis hurried after it, its eyes fixed on it, and its head spun around, pecking from the front to the feet, and clipping the loach from its head to its tail.

The loach struggled and jumped, I don't know if it was too seriously injured by the sharp beak and poked or no strength, the range of struggle became smaller and smaller, and finally the crested ibis shook its beak, lifted up from the beak tip, raised its head, blinked its eyes, and swallowed it with two throat strokes.
