Chapter 331 A pair of birds in a lifetime

While the hornbill couple was eating, you were like me.

Although the birds do not have as many expressions as people, but seeing their huge beaks gently touching, leaning their heads toward each other, and blinking their eyes at each other, anyone can see that they are a loving couple!

The act of handing food back and forth with the mouth is no different from the act of human couples feeding each other.

The breeder explained: "The hornbill is a very loyal bird! They are monogamous for life and will not change partners. If one of them dies, the other will not find a new love, but You will be depressed, go on a hunger strike and die."

The tourists were amazed!

I never imagined there was such a beautiful love between animals.

"Wow, so loyal. A pair of birds in a lifetime!"

"Sometimes scolding people will often scolding people and beasts are inferior. I feel that beasts are a word that represents the lower limit, and I feel that beasts are much better than us humans in many ways! Not only in physical fitness, but also in character!"

"Yeah, this life-and-death love can become a classic if it is replaced by human beings. What about Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, Meng Jiangnu crying on the Great Wall!"

The breeder said: "When you talk about birds that symbolize love, what do you think of?"

Immediately below, a tourist said: "Mandarin duck!"

"This is a common misunderstanding! Everyone sees that the mandarin ducks have gorgeous feathers and graceful postures. They often appear in pairs, and they groom each other's feathers to show their affection, right? They look sweet and sweet.

The ancients liked to use the mandarin duck as a symbol of love, and there are many poems and pictures. For example, in "The Peacock Flying Southeast", it is written that the branches cover each other, the leaves communicate with each other, and there are two flying birds. There are some customs that have been handed down now. When they get married, they make a red and festive wedding quilt for the newlyweds, right? The mandarin ducks are embroidered on it.

In fact, mandarin ducks have nothing to do with loyal love at all. If one partner dies, the other will continue to look for new partners, and when the female mandarin duck is brooding, the male mandarin duck will not care, and a love relationship ends here.

Don't care after the baby is born, is it a bit like a scumbag? "

There are many tourists who are shocked and shocked by their three views!

"Don't tell me, the quilt I got married was an embroidered mandarin duck!"

"One of the most frequently heard words about mandarin ducks is to beat mandarin ducks and forcibly break up other people's love. It seems that there is no need to beat them."

"I've heard of this! It is said that the mandarin duck not only has fancy feathers, but also has a very flowery heart."

"So, everyone will bless others in the future, don't say I wish you a happy love like a mandarin duck, and your love is like a mandarin duck. If you say that people may beat you, you can say that you are as loyal as a hornbill or a swan! Swans are also monogamous for life. of."

The breeder made a joke and continued: "Actually, the bird that best symbolizes love is the hornbill, why do you say that?

Hornbills have a very unique brooding behavior! When it comes to the breeding season, hornbills will find a tree hole, which will be processed and trimmed as a nest.

Then, the mother hornbill will lock herself in the tree hole, mix the leftover food scraps with feces and pile it at the hole, and the father hornbill will also bring mud, mixed fruit sawdust and other materials to seal the hole. Just leave a small hole for the mother hornbill's mouth to stick out.

Then, the mother hornbill will brood the eggs in the hole, not afraid of wind and rain, and also protect the baby bird from predators such as snakes and raptors.

Think about it, the mother hornbill stayed in the tree hole and was completely closed for a few months. This is how much trust you must have in the father hornbill. If the father hornbill dies outside one day, the mother bird will also starved inside.

The father of the hornbill is also very hard. The whole process of hatching and brooding is that it rushes outside to find food, and it has to fly outside to find food again and again. Just feed the mother hornbill at first, and then provide food to a few young hornbills later.

After the entire brooding period, the father bird will be exhausted and emaciated.

The mother hornbill has to wait until the young hornbill is plump before breaking out, pecking the hole open inside, and feeding the baby with the father hornbill. "

"Wow!"

One by one, the tourists opened their eyes wide, looking at the two hornbills whose beaks collided and looked at each other warmly, with two points of respect in their eyes!

It was a sigh before, but now it is a shock!

"It's amazing! And such a strange behavior!"

"It really is life and death!"

"The hornbill is so loving! This is a model couple who loves and cares about their family!"

"When I get married, I'm going to order a set of hornbill quilts and pillows! Hey, can you think about being a hornbill accessory for your zoo?"

The breeder scratched his head and said, "This, I will convey your opinion!"

Liu Xueqing was very emotional when she heard it, and said to Yingying's father, "Ah, whether it's a human or an animal, it's really not easy to bring a baby!"

Of course, raising a baby is not only hard work, but it is also very fun to watch the baby grow up.

With a smile, he touched Yingying's head: "Isn't it? Sometimes, be considerate of your parents."

Yingying blinked and pouted: "I'm very sensible!"

Both adults were amused: "Yes, sensible!"

Yingying was very well-behaved when she was a baby. She cried less. Some babies like to cry very much. They made people unable to sleep all night.

At this moment, a pleasant whistle sounded.

The tourists couldn't help but look up at the sky, and saw a colorful parrot cloud soon rose in the distance, flying in the direction of the giant tree.

There are several air shows at the Bird House in the morning and afternoon!

Originally, I thought that I would have to train for a while before I could perform the air show, but on the one hand, the parrots purchased by other zoos have also undergone summoning training, and the few macaws in the Linhai Zoo are quite appealing, and they are led by them. Saves a lot of running-in time.

On the air corridor, Fang Ye waved his hand, and the parrots flew to his side with a "hula la". Jin Zhi's parrots stood on his shoulders and head first, and the other parrots fell on the tree branches above their heads!

There seemed to be a bunch of colorful parrot fruits on the tree, and the "quack" was chaotically called.

Mi Jin watched the macaw fall on Fang Ye's head and squeezed on his shoulder.

Fang Ye smiled and said, "Of course I can, and I can say a lot. Would you like to say hello to it?"

Before Mi Jin could speak, Martin Jin had already said, "Hello, hello!"

Mi Jin couldn't help laughing out loud, and the parrot would rush to answer, and said the same: "Hello!"
