2.More and more birds are flying to settle at Qinghai Lake,one of the highest inland lakes in China,thanks to the protection efforts of local governments.Covering an area of over 4,000 square kilometers.Qinghai Lake is also the country's biggest saltwater lake.Located in Northwest China's Qinghai Province,the lake is famous for the two islands at its northwest point-Cormorant Island and Egg Island.The two islands have plenty of floating grass and various schools of fish,offering rich food sources for birds.The islands have become a paradise for different kinds of groups of birds and have been called"Bird Islands".
