Deep in Chuxiong Yi Autonomous Prefecture in southwest China's Yunnan Province, a rare encounter has just been captured on camera. The endangered green peafowl, known as the "king of birds," and the red junglefowl – an ancestor of domestic chickens – were spotted sitting side by side on a riverbank, like old friends catching up.

Both species are famously picky about where they live, so this unexpected moment hits different. It wasn't just a visual feast for bird lovers – it was a shining example of China's efforts in biodiversity conservation!
