A star bird species found in Hong Kong’s wetlands

Black-faced Spoonbills are one of the stars of Hong Kong’s wetlands.

Do you know what these Black-faced Spoonbills are doing?

They’re sleeping!

Unlike human, birds can sleep standing up! Some stand on one leg, with the other tucked under their feathers, along with their beaks. Since their beaks and legs are bare, tucking them into their thick feathers helps the birds keep warm.
