On October 28, when the staff of the Hukou Protection and Monitoring Station of the Poyang Lake National Nature Reserve Administration carried out "every eight" bird monitoring, thousands of white-fronted geese came to Poyang Lake in the waters of Nanbei Port, Hukou County, Jiangxi Province. Foraging in the water, green grass grows on the exposed tidal flats after the water recedes, and a large number of wintering migratory birds hover at low altitude or bow their heads for food, leisurely and contentedly.

  According to reports, this is the largest number of overwintering migratory birds found since the wintering this year. This indicates that the main force of overwintering migratory birds has arrived at Poyang Lake. It is expected that the peak of this year's wintering migratory bird migration will be ushered in in mid-November.
