Chapter 106 105. News Overturned

Luo Yihang has a TV at home, which is equipped with a set-top box that can be used to watch replays.

On the way back, Luo Yihang remembered what he had forgotten, and Officer Yuan was on the TV news.

Now that it’s mentioned, let’s take a look.

I turned on the TV and used the replay function to find the evening news broadcast on the city TV station last night.

Fast forward, fast forward, fast forward, got it.

This news segment started with footage of a family of red-crowned cranes and great egrets fighting, borrowed from the footage from Luo Yihang's live broadcast.

Then Officer Yuan appeared, wearing a brand new uniform, with his hair combed sleek and shiny, looking quite smart after being dressed up.

He was interviewed and talked about how he received the alarm, how he contacted people immediately, how he continued to pay attention, and so on. He talked a lot and finally said that the egret was still there, but the red-crowned crane flew away after that day.

Yes, that's right. Officer Yuan later asked Luo Yihang to go and see it several times, but he didn't see any red-crowned cranes. The last time was when they were releasing the shrimp fry, and he went to take a look.

The footage of Officer Yuan ended in less than a minute.

The scene changed and another person was interviewed. The subtitles said his position: he was an expert in the Crested Ibis Reserve who studied the habits of the Crested Ibis.

He first gave a definition, saying that this was the first time that a fight between red-crowned cranes was captured in the wild, and it was very meaningful for research.

Then the reporter asked why the red-crowned crane would fight with the great egret.

He replied that the crested ibis has many companion birds, mainly egrets, herons, night herons, pond herons and other heron family birds, which have the same living habits. The crested ibis and these companion birds often forage or roost together, but there are also conflicts.

It is speculated that this time they were competing for feeding grounds.

Then he talked about how the sanctuary breeds, how the young birds are monitored, and how artificial nests are provided during the breeding season.

As for why the red-crowned crane flew so far away from the nature reserve, experts said that it might have gotten lost after entering the wandering area after nesting, and went out to find food temporarily, and then returned to the breeding area after finding food, etc.

All in all, this red-crowned ibis went there temporarily, entered the territory of the group of great egrets, had a fight but failed, and then went home.

Because we didn't realize it later. Ping'angou is too far away from the Crested Ibis Reserve. The habitat of the Crested Ibis is only about 50 to 60 kilometers away, which is almost 100 kilometers away from here. It's impossible that they came here to build a nest unless they got lost temporarily.

So it is a reasonable inference.

The news was not long, less than three minutes, and I finished reading it quickly.

Luo Yihang contributed a viewership rating to Officer Yuan's first news show. The replay also had viewership ratings, so he felt he had done a good thing and sent him a text message, praising him for being so photogenic and saying he should have been a star back then. He had never seen anyone more suitable for being on TV than him.

Then I went about my own business.

Watering, cultivating the soil, taking care of the malt, taking care of the shrimp fry, it wasn't much and the morning passed by.

Until after lunch and during lunch break.

Luo Yihang finally had time to pick up his sports camera to see what Ding Xiaoman had taken pictures of yesterday.

The camera was hanging around Ding Xiaoman's neck yesterday. Luo Yihang didn't come back yesterday, so Zhang Guiqin took it off and put it on the table in the evening. It was not tied up this morning.

Export the video and take a look.

Embarrassed.

Because there was a crested ibis in the video...

It’s still the river beach, and there are still great egrets and Chinese penguins.

There is also Ding Xiaoman, and a fisherman wearing a windbreaker.

I recognized him. He was Luo Cheng's fishing friend, the one who gave Ding Xiaoman dried fish.

In the video, a family of great egrets can be seen in the background, catching fish on the other side of the river.

Nearby, Ding Xiaoman reached the shore first and lay on the river bank watching the fisherman fishing. The man and the cat occasionally chatted for a few words, but it was unclear whether they could understand each other.

After a while, the fisherman caught something and a small fish was thrown onto the shore.

At this time.

A big bird flew down from the sky, flapping its wings and landing on the shore, picked up the fish, and raised its neck to swallow it. Ding Xiaoman stood up, not moving, but watching the camera move downward. It lowered its body, probably making a threatening move like a cat, the starting position for a pounce.

Then, Ding Xiaoman made a gurgling sound in his throat and let out a low "ha" sound.

The red-crowned crane in the camera was frozen.

He ran over, put the fish in front of Ding Xiaoman, and then ran away, as cowardly as he could be.

This shouldn’t be the first time you’ve been so self-conscious. What on earth did you do, Ding Xiaoman?
Then the camera moved up, and it should be Ding Xiaoman sitting up, holding the fish with one paw, and meowing at the fisherman.

The fisherman was confused because the fish he caught was taken away by a bird and then ran under the cat's claws. The cat even barked at him.

He doesn't understand, he doesn't know what it means.

Seeing that the fisherman didn't understand, it let out a sigh, and the sound was like a sigh. It was probably sighing, wondering why this guy was so stupid.

He picked up the fish and ran to the fisherman, then used his claws to pull the box next to him.

The fisherman understood, opened the box and took out a bag of dried fish, still laughing: "You little cat, you exchanged my fish for my dried fish. This pound of dried fish costs thirty-five yuan."

He took out a dried fish and handed it to Ding Xiaoman's mouth while joking.

Ding Xiaoman spit out the fish and threw it in front of him. He opened his mouth, picked up the dried fish, ran back to his original position and lay down, chewing it with a crunching sound.

It also knows how to exchange money for goods.

Ding Xiaoman was satisfied, but the problem was that there was another bird over there.

When the red-crowned crane saw Ding Xiaoman leaving, it ran over again, pecked the fisherman's back with its long beak, pecked twice, tilted its head to stare at the fish in his hand, and when there was no response, it pecked twice again and continued to stare with its head tilted.

The fisherman cried helplessly, "I'm scared of you. Give it to you, give it to you."

The fish is in the bird's mouth.

The fisherman worked for a long time, but the fish was gone and the dried fish was gone too.

The red-crowned crane swallowed the fish but didn't leave. It lay down next to the fisherman and acted as a supervisor.

The fisherman is under a lot of pressure and casts his rod quickly.

Fortunately, I was lucky this time. Within two minutes, I caught another fish and threw it onto the shore.

The red-crowned crane raised its head and stared at the fish's flight path, turning its head around. It was so funny, luckily it had a long neck.

As soon as the fish landed on the ground, the red-crowned crane immediately stood up with its butt sticking out, flapped its wings, and ran over to pick up the fish.

Then he was sent to Ding Xiaoman.

Ding Xiaoman didn't even laugh at it this time.

Ding Xiaoman sat up, stretched out his paw to hold the fish, and meowed twice at the fisherman.

The fisherman responded with "Hey, hey" and came over with a dried fish to exchange for the fish he had caught.

When he returned to his fishing spot with the fish, the bird was already waiting with its mouth open.

Well, I still didn’t get anything…

Next, a man, a cat, and a bird started the assembly line work.

The fisherman caught a fish and let the bird take it to the cat. The fisherman then exchanged the fish for dried fish and fed it to the bird.

If you are slow in catching the fish, the birds will pick it up.

Fishermen have a hard time. They keep taking pictures with their phones, taking pictures of birds and cats, and complaining to the screen, "Today, I lost my time, fish food, and snacks. I sat all day and got nothing. I raised two ancestors..."

While complaining, he worked tirelessly to fish. Not everyone has the opportunity to feed fish to the red-crowned cranes. It was such an honor, he could talk about it for a whole year.

Seeing this, Luo Yihang scratched his head. This matter, it seems...

I called Officer Yuan and said, "Officer Yuan, it seems like you were in the news yesterday and it went wrong."
