Minor Cold, the penultimate solar term in the Chinese lunar calendar, brings winter's most bitter chill yet. Yet the sun's northward journey lengthens days, stirring life beneath the frost. At Liaoning's Wolong Lake Reserve, the white-tailed eagle – China's first-class protected raptor and "tiger of the skies" – cuts through frigid winds. Skimming icy waters, it hunts fish, birds and small mammals. These ancient Eurasian birds are ecological barometers: their presence marks a balanced, thriving ecosystem – proof that life soars even in the harshest cold.
