As early spring comes, flocks of rare migratory birds — including white-tailed sea eagles and Steller's sea eagles — have recently been spotted at the Jingxin Wetland in Hunchun city, Yanbian Korean autonomous prefecture in Jilin province.
They were spotted by bird watchers and photographers on the frozen Longshan Lake, where they rested and foraged for food.
The wetland covers more than 5,800 hectares and provides migratory birds with abundant food and a healthy ecological environment.
