In Sihong County in Suqian, east China’s Jiangsu Province, a vivid portrait of harmony between humans and nature is taking shape. Recently, a family of rare Oriental storks – a first-class nationally protected species – was spotted nesting atop a high-voltage transmission pole. In a heartwarming scene, the adult storks were seen carefully feeding their three growing chicks.
Since 2022, Oriental storks have chosen the county as their nesting grounds for four consecutive years, raising a total of 21 offspring. Behind this success lies sustained ecological protection efforts.
