In the last two weeks, thousands of people visit Summer Palace for Swans.
About 170 Tundra Swans live in KunMing Lake with several Mute Swans and Whooper Swans. Every spring and autumn, ducks and swans like to have a rest in Summer Palace. This attracts many birdwatchers and public.
A list of birds I saw last sunday. The number of Swans is floating, some come and some leave.
