A scenery of flying egrets in Ji’nan Zoo.

　　Egrets in Ji’nan Zoo sometimes play on twigs, sometimes feed chicks, sometimes sing and dance. 40 odd new egrets have been hatched naturally in Ji’nan Zoo since this spring including a mother egret hatches 4 “babies” at one time and all are alive which is rare. Ji’nan Zoo provides not only a friendly environment for the birds of Ji’nan city but also scientific feeding and meticulous care. Till now there are more than 300 egrets living in Ji’nan, adding vitality to the City of Springs in early summer and sketching an ecological picture.
