At around 10am on March 19, Tuoi Tre Online recorded that two red-crowned cranes were flying over the Phu My Species and Habitat Conservation Area (Giang Thanh district) and then calling loudly as if calling the flock, searching for food.
Two red-crowned cranes flew (at an altitude of more than 100m) around the rice fields and the area with many reeds in Phu My commune. Seeing the red-crowned cranes flying back, local people and experts took out their cameras and phones to film and take pictures.
The Management Board of Phu My Species and Habitat Conservation Area informed that after two days of unseasonal rain, today (March 19) is sunny and the red-crowned cranes are flying in the sky in Phu My commune. The unit forecasts that in the next few days, there is a possibility that red-crowned cranes will return to the buffer zone or core zone of this conservation area to feed.
"In 2017-2018, I observed and observed that about 108 red-crowned cranes came to this reserve to eat; in 2019, about 99 cranes came back.
In 2020-2022, due to human impact, the ecosystem of the reserve was unbalanced, so the cranes did not return. Sometimes, 4 cranes were seen flying by but did not land to eat.
This year, red-crowned cranes continuously come to feed, we are very happy" said Mr. Lam Hong Tuan - Deputy Director of Phu My Species and Habitat Conservation Area Management Board.
Previously, from March 11 to 16, about 45 red-crowned cranes returned to Phu My Species - Habitat Conservation Area to look for food, and many were even recorded by local people staying overnight.
Photographers and experts on red-crowned cranes also come to this reserve to study, research and take photos.
