Fantastic, congratulations on your effort for the conservation of this species.

Thanks Jonathan for your encouragement.
Indeed we are sorry for the delayed posting of these records. During our visit last year, we worried about the increasingly common and uncontrolled gravel-mining of the river bed along different rivers flowing in Changbaishan. The situation, though, was less intense compared to Jiangxi.
One encouraging sighting during our trip was a pair of Harlequin duck staying in the rapid waters. It was spotted by Catherine and confirmed by Mr. Liu Peiqi. Their presence in early summer may suggest trial of breeding in the area.
This year, we received reports of 3 successful nests of the scalys from Changbaishan.
