With the arrival of migratory waterfowls, the Animal Protection Office (APO) has teamed up with the Wild Bird’s Society of Taipei to offer ten sessions of free eco and bird-watching tours at the Huajiang Wild Duck Nature Park in November and December!

Beginning with birdwatching activities, the tours will take participants around the park to conduct observations of local wildlife – from amphibians to planktons to wetland plants. Visitors will have a chance to learn more about the human influence and ecology of the nature park, as well as the importance of eco-friendly lifestyle involving energy conservation and cutting back on the use of plastic.

To register, please visit the online registration website (Chinese): https://reurl.cc/DglaR. Positions are limited and available on a first-come-first-served basis.

According to APO, the Dahan Xindian Wetland was designated “National Level Vital Wetlands” by the central government’s Construction and Planning Agency during a key meeting on wetland assessment in 2007. The Huajiang Wild Duck Nature Park is located in the core area of the Dahan Xindian Wetland, boasting open terrain with significant volume of sediments and organic matters to support a lively ecosystem comprising rich benthic and aquatic organisms.

For more information on the activity, please visit the Chinese website of either the Wild Bird’s Society of Taipei (https://reurl.cc/KAdvj) or the Chinese website of APO (http://www.tcapo.gov.taipei/)
