Black-faced Spoonbill Ecological Exhibition Hall Introduction
The Black-faced Spoonbill Ecological Display Center is located not far from the Black-faced Spoonbill Birdwatching Pavilion and its main habitat. The building is situated on the water, with a unique design intended to avoid disturbing the natural ecology. Inside, there is an exhibition space that presents detailed information about the Black-faced Spoonbill, including its life history, wetland ecology, conservation efforts, and sustainable development. (This display center is affiliated with the Agricultural Council's Biodiversity Research Institute.) The Black-faced Spoonbill is affectionately known as the "Black-faced Dancer" and is listed as an endangered species. Currently, there is a stable population of Black-faced Spoonbills that migrates to the Tsuji River estuary in the winter, arriving around September to October and staying until March to May of the following year. The Black-faced Spoonbill rests during the day and feeds at night, starting its playful activities and bathing around 4 or 5 PM, often engaging in preening with one another. With a bit of luck, one might witness the impressive sight of the Black-faced Spoonbill in flight. In addition to the well-known Black-faced Spoonbill, around 200 species of migratory birds can be observed at the Tsuji River estuary. During winter, a greater variety of birds can be seen, with common species including gulls and sandpipers, while resident birds include the familiar dove and white-headed bulbul, making the avian resources exceptionally rich.
