On September 14, in a wheat field in Jimunai County, Altay Prefecture, Xinjiang, a large number of gray cranes and red hemp ducks forage and play in the newly harvested wheat field, forming an autumn landscape.
In recent years, with the improvement of the local ecological environment year by year, the species and number of wild birds have continued to increase, and the public's awareness of protecting wild animals has gradually increased, which has become a natural place for birds to stop, forage and breed during their migration.
Jimunai County is located in the northern part of Xinjiang, at the northern foot of the Sawuer Mountains on the northern margin of the Junggar Basin, on the south bank of the Irtysh River, and borders with Kazakhstan in the west, with a total area of 7,145 square kilometers.
