Golden phoenix photography

There are many animals in ancient myths in China that have their own meanings, among which the phoenix has the highest frequency, and it also represents auspicious meaning. No matter modern or ancient times, many costumes will have phoenix embroidery. The phoenix in dragon and phoenix is the phoenix. Especially for the elderly, they will embroider the image of a phoenix on their clothes, hoping that they will be safe for a year, or they will embroider the phoenix on their clothes for their younger generation, hoping that they will be safe, healthy and healthy for a year. Even some gold and silver treasures will bear the imprint of the phoenix, but does the phoenix really exist? This is an unsolved mystery for thousands of years. There has been no way to explain and confirm whether there is a phoenix. But some birds in nature look like phoenixes. These birds are often mistaken for phoenixes.

An old farmer in Shanxi had the experience of raising phoenix. When he was herding sheep, he found that there seemed to be a phoenix in the flock. He felt it was his responsibility, so he came here to raise the phoenix after herding sheep for four years every day. Now he has an unexpected surprise because of raising a phoenix.

The old farmer lives in Liuhe village, Pinglu county, where there is a place that bird photographers yearn for. Many photographers who love birds always come here to shoot all kinds of birds, precisely because people come and go here, but they still have to abide by a special regulation of this place. If you want to shoot birds, you must be led by bird people Guo Chuansuo before you can enter the shooting location. In addition, the photographer must shoot at a fixed location and at a fixed time. After all, this is a paradise for bird photographers, so even with all kinds of regulations, people still come and go.

Why is there such a rule here? There is also a reason for this, because four years ago, there was a man named Guo Chuansuo. One day, as usual, he raised a flock of sheep and liked to wander around when he was idle. Looking at the distant scenery, suddenly he saw a bird among the birds. It was slender, colorful and quite beautiful. Because Guo Chuansuo is just an ordinary farmer, he has seen golden phoenix in New Year pictures before, and there are legends of golden phoenix in the village, so he thinks this is the Phoenix. Seeing the Phoenix, he was so excited that he thought he would see golden phoenix in his lifetime.

He thinks that only he can see golden phoenix, which is God's arrangement, so it is his duty and responsibility to protect golden phoenix. In this way, during these four years, he insisted on feeding Phoenix every day, but never thought about what kind of return he wanted. But as an old man in his 60s, his family didn't understand his behavior. Even so, he still enjoys it.

Gradually, golden phoenix raised by Guo Chuanyang became more and more famous. Many photographers who love birds came to find out and witnessed the Phoenix with their own eyes, but those who have seen it don't think it is a real Phoenix, but a golden pheasant, a national second-class protected animal. Although he may not have raised a real phoenix, his behavior of raising a phoenix for four years is admirable.
