Wisdom is not charging people extra to see your reconstituted Jurassic Park style dinosaur zoo when all you’ve got is a barn full of chickens. Humans have always classified organisms in a variety of ways, depending on need. Some sort of ancient fish-with-feet is the ancestors of humans. Think about it. But here’s the thing.

It’s the kind of place that helps you get past the human notion that we’re outside of nature—that there’s this divine, glorious thing called nature, and then there’s us, you know, way above it all and in charge.

eBird states that White Wagtails are “usually seen as singles, pairs, or small groups”, which seems a sentence rather devoid of any information content. Whenever I find a good spot to see Reed Parrotbill at Nanhui, I can be pretty sure that there will be some human activity within the next three months that will destroy this site.

Today, the national forest park is open to tourists – which in China means large groups of people in similarly large buses. If being hunted by evil humans was not enough, Ashy-throated Parrotbills are also hosts of the parasitic Common Cuckoo. Greater economic implications, e.g., damage to domestic chickens?
