In a scene straight out of nature’s feel-good playlist , a family of great crested grebes is winning hearts at Shenyang’s Dongling Park wetlands. Watch these fluffy chicks toggle between cozy naps under mom’s wings and wide-eyed explorations of their watery playground!
Talk about #ParentingGoals: The grebe duo meticulously tends to their newborns in northeast China’s Liaoning Province, turning reed beds into a summer paradise. Every year, these elegant birds return here to flirt (their courtship dances are legendary), build nests, and raise families – a wild emblem of resilience.
Local eco-enthusiasts call the wetlands a ‘nature’s nursery’ where biodiversity thrives. As heatwaves grip many regions, this tranquil avian haven reminds us why preserving ecosystems matters – one adorable chick peekaboo at a time.
