The tall cypress trees also serve as nesting sites for numerous bird species, with some trees hosting five to six egret nests.

Localisation et transport

Baoyinghu National Wetland Park is located in the city of Yangzhou, Jiangsu Province, China. It lies to the west of Baoying Lake, with the famous Grand Canal (Jing-Hang Grand Canal) running along its eastern border. Unfortuantely, because of its relatively remote location, the only way to get there is to drive yourself or sign up for an organized tour.
