'Royal family' of Summer Palace adds new member

The Summer Palace in Beijing was once an imperial garden in the Qing Dynasty, but now it is the best place for migratory birds to breed their chicks. The great crested grebes are one of the "royal families" living in the palace. The migratory birds arrived here in May for summering. And recently, a pair of grebes took their newborn chicks foraging in the lake.
