Yinchuan, located in Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region in northwest China, is a city blessed by the Yellow River which runs through the area. There are many beautiful lakes in Yinchuan, which are not only attractions for people, but also for various birds. One of the most notable migrant birds stopping by the city is the black-headed gull, a small gull that feeds on insects, fish, seeds and worms. In recent years, a growing number of black-headed gulls have been seen resting in Yinchuan's lakes.
