MACAO, May 19 (Xinhua) -- The wild birds are well-protected in
China's Macao Special Administrative Region (SAR), with more than 100 bird
species discovered last year, a recent report by the SAR government's civil
bureau said.
A total of 126 bird species were sightseen in forests,
wetlands, tidal flats as well as parks across the region last year, with eight
of them discovered for the first time in Macao, the Civic and Municipal Affairs
Bureau (IACM) of the SAR government said in the report.
The IACM has also discovered five rare bird species last year,
which belongs to the second-grade protection animal, including the black-faced
spoonbills.
As the IACM has joined a global program to survey the number
of the black-faced spoonbills, it has discovered 44 those rare waterfowls and
recorded their migration route, the report said.
The IACM has stepped up its monthly survey on wild birds in
Macao since 2006.
Besides, it has planted fruit and nectar plants, as well as
mangroves to provide food and shelter for wild birds.
