Human efforts have contributed to the flourishing bird life at the mudflat, leaving and creating more space for birds to live.
"There used to have fishermen making a living here, catching fish, raising fish in the ponds and collecting clams and crabs after ebb tide. To leave more habitats and food supply to the birds, they stopped fishing and picked up jobs in ecotourism. Their ponds have also been returned to wetlands," said Lyu.
