Dozens of black-faced spoonbills are spotted at the Minjiang River estuary wetland in Fuzhou, the capital city of southeast China's Fujian Province. The black-faced spoonbill has been listed as endangered species by the International Union for Conservation of Nature and is China's national first-class protected animal. Lying at an important courier station of the East Asian-Australasian Flyway, the Minjiang River estuary wetland is rich in biodiversity, with more than 50,000 waterbirds distributing and wintering throughout the year. Local villagers had set up aquaculture farms there, but to better protect the wetland, the local government has reclaimed the farms with subsidies and zoned it as a protected area.
