On February 14, good news came from the Xiangyang Wild Birds Conservation Association that a dozen Chinese mergansers (first-grade state-protected bird) was found in Hanjiang National Wetland Park, Gucheng, Xiangyang after more than a year of observation.

Surviving after the Tertiary Glacial Age and found more than 10 million years ago, Chinese merganser is an international endangered species.
