On October 8, a management station staff operated machinery to harvest old moss grass at the Duogan Isle Area in the South Dongting Lake Nature Reserve. This aimed to ensure that migratory birds have sufficient food for overwintering and to facilitate orderly use of wetland grass resources. On that day, the Duogan Isle Area monitored the first batch of three migratory gray cranes since this autumn. (Photo/Huang Yun and Zhou Jing)
