In early fall, bucolic scenes of birds and herds of deer coexisting in harmony are to be found everywhere at Qinhu Lake National Wetland Park, located in Jiangyan district of Taizhou city, East China's Jiangsu province.
The unspoiled sights and sounds of nature enchant visitors. Herds of elk placidly wade through waterways, or bow their heads to forage, while egrets stroll about on the grass and sometimes flutter their wings.
