05:26

The Qinghai-Xizang Plateau enjoys long sunshine hours, with a daily average of eight in summer. The wetland's lush vegetation and lively aquatic creatures provide migratory birds with a dreamy breeding ground. The mother crane adjusts the eggs from time to time, pointing the tips in the direction of the wind to keep them from getting cold. Like the black-necked cranes, more and more birds build their nests across the lake to breed their young. The lake is immersed in a harmonious atmosphere.
