Dear family, let's meet the black-headed gull, the "cute" bird in the world! It is mini, with an average height of 30 cm and a weight of less than 250 grams, which is equivalent to the weight of a can of mini Coke. Individual defense ability is poor, and it is not possible to fight alone. Fortunately, they are smart and choose to stay together for warmth. Their nests are often gathered in the same vegetation, and the distance between nests is sometimes less than half a meter. This kind of group life is like insurance for the population, which is a super magic weapon for them to resist foreign enemies and protect the safety of the family. Black-headed gulls are the leaders in the "drying food" world! Every day at dawn, they rush to the Red Beach, with the main goal of "getting up early means getting a meal". When hunting, they dive down from the air as if they were equipped with GPS, accurately "catching" crabs and worms. If they accidentally miss, they will immediately "flash back" to the air, with the main goal of not lingering on. As the "indigenous people" of the coastal mudflats, the black-headed gulls have very special eating habits. They love to eat saltwater food, but they have to drink fresh water, just like eating strong-tasting snacks with mineral water. Fortunately, after the tide recedes, the mudflats are full of small fish, shrimps, and shellfish, a perfect "seafood buffet". Moreover, as long as the black-headed gulls see food hidden in the mud, they will dive in and will not stop until they get the food in their mouths! Black-headed gulls are sensitive and are nature's "weather forecasters". There is a folk saying: "It's cloudy in the morning, sunny in the evening, and clear at midnight until dawn". With a simple call, they can understand the weather conditions. When fishermen get lost at sea, they will take the initiative to lead the way, which can be called "navigation at sea". The most amazing thing is that they seem to be able to foresee the future, know the rising water level in advance, build their nests high, and are not afraid of floods. They can be called the "wisest" among birds. Black-headed gulls are a unique symbol of wetland ecology and a treasure gifted by nature. They reflect the health of wetlands like a "barometer". Protecting them is protecting wetland ecology and our common beautiful home. Raising public awareness of the importance of wetlands is something that each of us can do. I hope everyone will share this tweet so that more people will pay attention to wetland protection and work together to protect the ecological lifeline of the earth. |
