Large flocks of migratory birds covered the sky over drifting ice floes in the Yellow River, located in east China's Shandong Province. 🦅❄️ This stunning phenomenon was witnessed in Dongying City, a key coastal stopover for these feathered travelers. Since February 7, ice floes have been observed stretching over 400 kilometers from Taian City to the river's mouth, with the highest concentration in Dongying.
As temperatures rise and the ice begins to melt, a picturesque scene unfolds: birds rest on the floating ice before taking flight once again. 🌅🐦 Witnessing this natural spectacle highlights the delicate balance of our ecosystem and the impact of changing climates on wildlife patterns.
