Birding around Qinghai Lake, China

10,000 Birds

Located about 2 hours from Xining by car, Qinghai Lake is China’s largest lake.

Access to the lakeshore and its surrounding wetlands can be difficult in many locations – most of the coastline is blocked off.

A battle royale between a mink and a salmon. We came upon this min-war recently along Highland Creek in Scarborough, Ontario, Canada. Not sure who finally won, but the mink seemed to have the upper hand when we left.
