Live: Migratory birds flock to Ningxia's Yellow River wetlands

Located along the upper reaches of the Yellow River in northwest China's Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, Qingtongxia Reservoir Wetland Nature Reserve serves as a vital stopover for migratory birds.

Each year, as autumn gives way to winter, birds moving along two of the world's nine major migration flyways — the East Asian-Australasian Flyway and the Central Asian Flyway — funnel through this site. The reservoir's expansive waters, shallow wetlands and reed beds offer feeding grounds and shelter for their long journeys.

Climate change poses a major threat to these birds. As COP31 unfolds in Türkiye from November 9 to 20, join us to protect these wetlands, and our planet.
