"We found that a pair of Oriental storks had laid four eggs, and they successfully raised two chicks," said Gao. "In previous years, Oriental storks merely passed through the reserve without staying to breed."

"Their breeding occurrence proves that the reserve's ecology has reached a standard suitable for breeding," he added.

Meanwhile, in ecological reserves across Jilin, the number and variety of migratory birds have increased annually, showcasing fruitful results in ecological protection.
